The Vestas V164 is a three-bladed offshore wind turbine, produced by Vestas, with a nameplate capacity of up to 10 megawatts, a world record. [1] Vestas revealed the V164's design in 2011 with the first prototype unit operated at Østerild in northern Denmark in January 2014. [ 2 ]
The wind farm includes 100 9.5 MW turbines from Vestas for a total generating capacity of 950 MW. The wind farm uses three 220 kV AC export cables to transmit generated power to the national grid. [6] The operations and maintenance base for the wind farm is located in Fraserburgh. [7]
The wind turbines are manufactured by Vestas with 66 metre blades and a tip height of 152 metres above the ground. Western Power constructed a 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) transmission line from the wind farm to the existing 330 kV transmission network near Eneabba. [7] [6] In 2023 funding was announced for a potential expansion of the wind farm. [8]
The level of interference is a function of the signal processors used within the radar, the speed of the aircraft and the relative orientation of wind turbines/aircraft with respect to the radar. An aircraft flying above the wind farm's turning blades could become impossible to detect because the blade tips can be moving at nearly aircraft ...
Turbines at Wild Horse. The Wild Horse Wind Farm is a 273-megawatt wind farm that generates energy for Puget Sound Energy that consists of one hundred twenty seven 1.8-megawatt Vestas V80 turbines and twenty two 2.0-megawatt Vestas V80 turbines on a 10,800-acre (4,400 ha) site in Kittitas County, Washington, 17 miles (27 km) east of Ellensburg, Washington.
The wind farm contains 43 Vestas V150 turbines, each of which can generate 4.2 MW of electricity. [3] They each have a 155-metre hub height [4] and a rotor diameter of 150 metres, resulting in a tip height of 230 metres. [2] [5] The cost of the project is estimated to be around $450 million. [6]
