Project details

  • Turbine type: Vestas V80
  • Capacity: 2 megawatt (MW) per wind turbine. Total installed capacity is therefore 8MW
  • Height: 125m to the tip of the blade, measured from original ground level
  • Expected annual power output: circa 17 gigawatthour (GWh). The generated electricity is fed into the local grid network
  • Life span: the wind farm is expected to be operational for up to 20 years
