Foreword from the Chairman of the Board
Dear Shareholders,
With the conclusion of a contract also meaning an out-of-the-ordinary order of magnitude for the European wind energy market, we have laid the foundation stone for the development of Plambeck Neue Energien AG in the coming three years. On March 29, 2006, we made a basic agreement with the firm of Babcock & Brown Wind Partners Limited, which is quoted on the Australian Stock Exchange, for the construction and take-over of 30 onshore wind-farms in Germany. The transaction has a volume of about 400 million Euro.
The contract entails a total of 30 wind-farms with about 180 wind-energy systems and an overall output of more than 300 MW, to be built by Plambeck Neue Energien AG in the years of 2006 to 2008 in the Federal States of Lower Saxony, North Rhine-Westphalia and Brandenburg.
We have always referred to the great significance of the wind-energy market onshore in Germany. Location acquisition has been a focal point of the corporate activities in recent years. With this contract, this has impressively confirmed itself as the correct path.
The basic agreement secures the planning of Plambeck Neue Energien AG in wind-farm projecting for the next three years and thus also the jobs within the company.
In addition, this contract secures turnover, profit and liquidity in our central business field of wind-farm project development onshore in Germany for the next three years, as we have simultaneously found a strong partner offering us high planning security, fixed sales prices and secured financing of the construction phase in the implementation of the projects. With the takeover of the technical and also the commercial operating management for the wind-farms by us, further continuous turnovers and profits for at least ten years will be generated.
To secure the advance financing of the wind-farm projects due for implementation, we carried out a successful capital increase in April. The new shares were offered to our shareholders for subscription.
We continued our operative business in the first quarter of 2006 with the conclusion of the work on two wind-farm projects and the start of construction for three further wind-farm projects. We were able to increase turnover, compared with the same quarter last year, by 261% from 6.3 mill. Euro to 22.9 mill. Euro. With a positive result (EBIT) of 1.4 mill. Euro, we successfully continued the positive trend from the fourth quarter of 2005.
These pleasing developments were also reflected in increased share prices. They give us cause to place our sights optimistically in a forward direction.
I thank you, dear shareholders, for your trust and your loyalty.
Dr. Wolfgang von Geldern Chairman of the Board


The shares
Sequence of the price of the Plambeck share indexed

Sequence of the price of the Plambeck share in Euros

Plambeck share rises by 275 %
In the first quarter of 2006, the DAX rose from 5,882 points to 5,970 points, thus by about 12%. The Prime IG Renewables Index climbed from 459 to 773 points and thus improved by 68 %.
The shares in Plambeck Neue Energien developed very positively in the first quarter of the present year. Whereas the securities developed practically analogously to the Prime IG Renewable Energies Index until the end of March, they clearly left the index behind them in the following period. In the course of the first three months of 2006, the price of the Plambeck share rose from its price at the start of the year, Euro 1.10, to Euro 2.56 on March 31. On April 24, the share reached its highest price for the year, Euro 4.13, thus rising by 275% since the start of the year. This development is essentially to be put down to the development of operative business in 2005, which exceeded many people's expectations, and the successful course of the restructuring of the group. But also the positive environment in the area of renewable energies as well as the stable political environment contributed to the share's rise.


Increase in capital successfully placed
In April this year, the company made an increase in capital from approved capital. In the period from April 12 until April 25, the shareholders were able to subscribe Plambeck shares in a ratio of 10:1 at a price of Euro 2.50. Plambeck succeeded in placing all 2,249,526 shares. The new shares participate in the profits as of January 1, 2005. With the successful placement, the original capital of the company rises from Euro 22,495,271 to Euro 24,744,797.
General Meeting
The Ordinary General Meeting of Plambeck Neue Energien AG will be held at the company's registered office in Cuxhaven on May 17, 2006. The convening and further information on the agenda can be found in the Internet under www.pne.de in the "Investor Relations" area.
Director's Dealings
As of March 31, 2006, Dr. von Geldern as a member of the Board held 10,499 shares. On the Supervisory Board, Mr Mehrtens held 210 shares. This, the number of shares held by executive organs has not changed compared with 31.12.2005.

Group situation report
1. Market / economic framework conditions
The markets for wind-farm projectors in Germany is increasingly being marked by a growing demand by internationally active investors. The demand is above all for wind-farms already projected and to be set up at short notice and also for those already in operation. An essential reason for the growing demand can be seen in the framework conditions for the operation of wind-farms in Germany, which are highly calculable on an international scale.
According to information from the German Wind Energy Institute (DEWI), 17,574 wind-energy systems (WES) with a total output of 18,428 MW had been installed all over the country at the end of 2005. Germany thus continues to have one of the top positions. For 2006, the DEWI expects an addition of new wind-energy system of about 1,500 MW.
The Board of Plambeck Neue Energien AG regards the wind-energy market in Germany as being stable. In the coming years, although we expect a further drop in the number of new constructions of wind-energy systems in Germany onshore each year, this will less affect the companies commercially active on the market. At the same time, we expect positive effects from the starting of re-powering and the construction of offshore projects on the North Sea and the Baltic.
2. Political framework conditions
The "energy summit" of the national government, which had been announced for a long time, actually took place on April 3, 2006. The significance of renewable energies for the future energy supply was emphasised. The share of renewable energies is to be extended even further. Wind energy will also profit from this. The framework conditions for the planning and realisation of wind-farm projects in Germany have not changed.
In the period of the report, the EU Commission published a "green book" on the future European energy policy. In it, renewable energies are given high significance and their further speedy extension is demanded.
3. Corporate structure
The corporate structure did not change in the period of the report.
The holding situation in SSP Technology A/S changed in that shares to the amount of 3.85 per cent were subscribed by a number of investors in the course of an increase of capital. The holding of Plambeck Neue Energien AG in SSP Technology A/S has thus been reduced to 96.15 per cent. The increase in capital was done on the basis of a pre-money assessment of 7.5 mill. Euro.


4. Course of business
a. Plambeck Neue Energien AG
With the conclusion of a basic agreement with Babcock Brown Wind Partners Ltd. for construction and sale of 30 wind-farms, we have laid the foundation for the development of Plambeck Neue Energien AG in the next three years.
Plambeck Neue Energien AG and Babcock & Brown Wind Partners Ltd. agreed construction and take-over of the wind-farms onshore in Germany on March 29, 2006. The agreement has a volume of about 400 million Euro. On the European wind-energy market, this is an extraordinarily significant order of magnitude.
The agreement entails 30 wind-farms with about 180 wind-energy systems and an overall output of more than 300 MW, to be set up by Plambeck Neue Energien AG in the years 2006 to 2008 in the federal states of Lower Saxony, North Rhine-Westphalia and Brandenburg. After completion, Babcock & Brown Wind Partners takes over the wind-farms.
The basic agreement secures the planning of Plambeck Neue Energien AG in wind-farm projecting for the next three years. At the same time, the agreement secures turnover, revenue and liquidity in the central business field of wind-farm project development onshore in Germany. Thanks to the take-over of the technical and commercial operation management of the windfarms by us, further continuous turnovers and revenue will be generated after the start of operation.
In the first quarter, the Freudenberg and Brieske wind-farms were completed and handed over to the buyers. In these wind-farms, 17 wind-energy systems of the Vestas V80 type with a nominal total output of 34 MW have been built. In future, they will generate enough environmentally friendly electricity to cover the annual requirements of about 18,000 households.
In addition, the construction of the Groß Welle, Prötzel and Hiddestorf wind-farms was commenced in the first quarter. In these wind-farms, 19 wind-energy systems with a nominal total output of 37 MW together are being set up. Purchase agreements for these wind-farms had already been concluded in the previous year.
As per March 31, 2006, approvals according to the Federal Emission Protection Act had been granted for nine of our wind-farm projects in Germany onshore. A positive preliminary building decision was available for a further project.
A large stock of secured wind-farm locations in Germany onshore is still the basis for our further activities. All told, more than 50 wind-farm projects in various development phases with a planned total output of more than 550 MW were processed in the first quarter in order to obtain all the necessary approvals for these projects and to reach the realisation stage. Here, the great value of the securing of wind-farm locations practised in previous years was seen.
In the offshore area, the approval proceedings for the mains connection of the "Borkum Riffgrund" project were primarily processed in the course of project development. The focal point was the continuous agreement with the State of Lower Saxony and coordination with further project developers for the course of the mains connection via the island of Norderney. A further focal point was the development of suitable mains connections routes from the landing point at the coast to the feed-in point near Emden.
Alongside the "Borkum Riffgrund" project, further offshore projects on the North Sea and the Baltic are being processed by Plambeck Neue Energien AG. For the North Sea wind-farm "Gode Wind", we expect approval by the Federal Agency of Marine Shipping and Hydrography (BSH) in 2006.


b. Subsidiaries
Our Danish subsidiary SSP Technology A/S reinforced the cooperation with a renowned system manufacturer for the development of a new rotor blade and achieved turnover to the amount of 0.8 mill. Euros from it in the first quarter. SSP takes on the design, the development and manufacture as well as mould construction for the rotor-blade production. In addition, SSP accompanies the set-up of the moulds and assembly work at the place of production. On the basis of the experience and knowledge from this ongoing cooperation, further projects, about which concrete contractual negotiations are being held, are also being planned.
The Board is convinced that the group will develop positively in the coming years on this basis.
5. Development of the turnover
The figures stated below have been determined and portrayed according to IFRS. In the fiscal year of 2005, 33 wind-farm operating companies were included in the group accounts for the first time due to the revised version of IAS 27. They had not been included in the past as the wind-farm operating companies were to be sold "in the near future". The company interpreted the criterion "in the near future" as sale within five years. In the revised version of IAS 27 in combination with IFRS 5, sale "within twelve months" is the precondition for consolidation not being necessary. In the planning calculation of Plambeck Neue Energien AG, sale of the windfarm operating companies is planned during the next three years, with the result that they must be included in the group accounts. The inclusion is done according to the directives of 27.13 (b or c), as Plambeck Neue Energien AG – despite a lack of holding in the equity of the wind-farm operating companies – provides the management of these companies and thus has the opportunity of determining the financial and business policy. The previous year's figures in the group accounts for 2005 were adapted retrospectively as a result of the first inclusion of the wind-farm operating companies. Due to a lack of quarterly reporting of the wind-farm operating companies in the fiscal year of 2005, retrospective adaptation of the previous year's quarterly accounts was waived, as the retrospective determination of the adaptation amounts would lead to a disproportionately high additional effort.
In the group, an overall performance of Euro 24.0 mill. (previous year: 9.0 mill. Euro) was achieved in the 1st quarter of 2006, amounting to 22.9 mill. Euro from turnover revenue (previous year: 6.3 mill. Euro), 0.8 mill. Euro from inventory changes (previous year: 1.6 mill. Euro) and 0.3 mill. Euro (previous year: 1.1 mill. Euro) from other operational revenue.
In the 1st quarter of 2006, SSP Technology achieved a turnover of 0.8 mill. Euro (previous year: 0.0 mill. Euro). In the further subsidiaries, turnover from management remuneration and services to the amount of 1.2 mill. Euro (previous year: 1.4 mill. Euro) and from substation use fees to the amount of 0.5 mill. Euro (previous year: 0.4 mill. Euro).
6. Income situation
The operating result (EBIT) amounts to 1.4 mill. Euro (previous year 0.7 mill. Euro) and the result of customary business activity (EBT) 0.5 mill. Euro (previous year 0.3 mill. Euro).
The quarterly result in the group amounts to 0.3 mill. Euro (previous year: 0.1 mill. Euro).
Personnel expenditure in the period of the report amounted to 1.3 mill. Euro (previous year: 1.8 mill. Euro).
SSP Technology achieved a result from customary business activity (EBT) to the amount of 0.0 mill. Euro (previous year: minus 0.4 mill. Euro). The operating result (EBIT) with SSP


Technology amounted to 0.1 mill. Euro (previous year: minus 0.3 mill. Euro) in the period of the report.

| Latent taxes | 4.2 | 4.2 |
| Liquid funds | 3.2 | 3.0 |
| Balance sheet total | 117.4 | 119.2 |
As per March 31, 2006, the immaterial assets total 26.4 mill. Euro (per 31.12.2005: 26.6 mill. Euro). These are in particular the goodwill of the onshore business with 20 mill. Euro and SSP Technology A/S with 4.8 mill. Euro.
Fixed assets amount to 32.7 mill. Euro as per March 31, 2006 (per 31.12.2005: 32.7 mill. Euro). These are essentially real properties and buildings (15.5 mill. Euro), sub-stations in our possession (7.3 mill. Euro) and systems under construction from the Borkum Riffgrund project (4.7 mill. Euro).
Stocks contain incomplete services of 23.4 mill. Euro (per 31.12.2005: 22.6 mill. Euro). The incomplete services include the offshore project "Gode Wind". The company is currently negotiating with investors about implementation of the project. Building permission is expected for mid-2006. The company planning presupposes that part of holding in the project will be sold in 2007. In projects in the offshore area, it is necessary to be given functioning project financing with a solvent financial partner.
In addition, the assets contain receivables and other assets to the amount of 26.4 mill. Euro (per 31.12.2005: 29.1 mill. Euro), of which 13.5 mill. Euro are receivables from long-term order production (per 31.12.2005: 16.6 mill. Euro) and 7.9 mill. Euro trade receivables (per 31.12.2005: 8.4 mill. Euro).
Cash funds amounts to 3.2 mill. Euro as per March 31, 2006 (per 31.12.2005: 3.0 mill. Euro).

The group equity on the decisive date of March 31, 2006, amounted to minus 3.2 mill. Euro (per 31.12.2005: minus 3.5 mill. Euro).
The essential items on the liabilities side are concerned with the liabilities to the amount of 93.1 mill. Euro (per 31.12.2005: 89.4 mill. Euro). These are basically split into the convertible bonds 2004/2009 (21.3 mill. Euro, of which 19.6 mill. Euro are shown as outside capital share under the liabilities and 1.7 mill. Euro as equity share under the capital reserves), liabilities towards credit institutions to the amount of 42.6 mill. Euro (per 31.12.2005: 46.8 mill. Euro) and trade debts to the amount of 11.7 mill. Euro (per 31.12.2005: 11.4 mill. Euro).
8. Financial situation / liquidity
Plambeck Neue Energien AG is still being restructured and is working on the basis of the restructuring plan defined until 2008. It contains individual targets for turnover, revenue and liquidity which have to be reached in order to secure the existence of the company. The Board places particular attention on achievement of the liquidity objectives. The restructuring objectives have been completely fulfilled up to now.
Information about the liquidity situation and the financial situation of the group is given by the group capital flow account, which can be seen in the tabular part of this report. As per March 31, 2006, free liquidity to the amount of 7.5 mill. Euro was at the disposal of the group companies.
The cash flow from ongoing business activity shown in it is marked by the first flows of funds from the Babcock & Brown agreement. The cash flow from the financing activity is essentially marked by not using a current account loan.
Only slight investments were made in the period of the report, essentially concerned with the further development of the "Borkum Riffgrund" offshore project (0.3 mill. Euro).
On March 31, 2006, the total number of issued shares in Plambeck Neue Energien AG was unchanged at 22,495,271.
So that medium-term financial power is sufficient to continue the Plambeck group, the existing loan facilities must be maintained until 31.12.2007 according to the consortium loan agreement. With a view to the sequence of the restructuring going to plan, there are no indications that this could not be the case. In addition, the basic agreement with Babcock & Brown Wind Partners secures the further development of the group.


9. Organisation and employees
In the group, we employed 130 (previous year: 147) people as of March 31, 2006. The employees of the holding companies are contained in this figure. Of these employees, 75 (previous year: 92) were employed by Plambeck Neue Energien AG on March 31, 2006.
10. Sales and Marketing
In the period of the report, we succeeded in concluding a basic agreement with Babcock & Brown Wind Partners Ltd, Sydney, for 30 German wind-farm projects to be set up by us (see Section 4, Course of business). All told, the demand for wind-farm projects has distinctly increased.
11. Essential incidents after the end of the period of the report
Plambeck Neue Energien AG carried out an increase in capital in April 2006. The funds going to the company form this to the amount of around 5.6 mill. Euro are being used for increased prefinancing of wind-farm projects. The approved capital was partly used in order to increase the share capital of the company from previously € 22,495,271 to € 24,744,797 by the issue of 2,249,526 new registered shares with a calculatory proportion of the share capital of Euro 1.00 each against cash contributions. The issue price was Euro 2.50. The new shares participate in the profits as of January 1, 2005. The shareholders were granted a subscription right in a ratio of 10:1.
12. Prospects
The development, realisation and marketing of wind-farm projects in Germany onshore and offshore remains the central business of Plambeck Neue Energien AG in the coming years. Here, we see good prospects on the basis of the agreement with Babcock & Brown Wind Partners.
In our estimate, the demand for wind-farm projects in Germany will continue to develop positively with large-scale investors. An essential reason for the investors' interest is the stable and calculable framework conditions for the long-term operation of wind-farms in Germany.
On this basis, we are planning a turnover growth in a distinctly double-figured range for 2006 and a continuation of this development for 2007. In the current year of 2006, we expect a positive EBIT and a distinct improvement for 2007.
From SSP Technology A/S as a developer and producer of rotor blades, we expect an increasingly stronger positioning on the world market, rise being given to this by the forecast world-wide growth in the market for wind energy systems in the coming years, in which the use of particularly efficient, quiet and long-serving rotor blades has great significance.
Important signs for a positive business development in the coming years have thus been set by us in this way.
