In the report, we carry out a verification analysis of the development of the wind power plant. This means that we map suppliers and subcontractors who have been involved in the process. In addition, we carry out an economic ripple effect analysis, where we estimate the value creation and employment effects of this activity. The review shows what proportion of the value creation is actually distributed among local, regional and national businesses.
The results show that 61 unique local suppliers have contributed goods and services worth NOK 151 million to the development. From surrounding municipalities in the region, there are also 58 suppliers who have contributed with deliveries worth a further NOK 239 million. This indicates a regional share of a of 19 percent. It is particularly for ground preparation work, roads and foundations where the local and regional suppliers have been involved. The national proportion is 39 percent of the total economic activity. The largest delivery that is imported is the turbines themselves, which make up the majority of the investment in a wind power plant.
