A BKW spokesman told Keystone-SDA a report in the newspaper "Le Matin Dimanche". On its website, the municipal council of Courtelary BE regrets the damage, classified "significant". However, the factories continued to supply electricity.
A total of 16 wind turbines are used in Switzerland's largest wind farm. Bern cantonal police filed two complaints, one in April and one in late June, a spokesman said. The latest report concerns damage to the bottom of the turbines. Due to ongoing investigations, the police did not provide further information.
In October 2016, arson was committed on the nearby EJ St. Brais wind farm. The unknown set fire to the electrical panel and damaged one of the two turbines. The local operator ADEV had filed a complaint. According to "Le Matin Dimanche", the prosecutor's office closed the investigations because they did not result in any results.
