This is a list of the onshore wind farms that are larger than 250 MW in current nameplate capacity. Many of these wind farms have been built in stages, and construction of a further stage may be continuing at some of these sites. The Gansu Wind Farm in China is the largest wind farm in the world, with a target capacity of 20,000 MW by 2020.
India has the fifth largest installed wind power capacity in the world. [96] As of 31 March 2014, the installed capacity of wind power was 21136.3 MW mainly spread across Tamil Nadu state (7253 MW). [97] [98] Wind power accounts nearly 8.5% of India's total installed power generation capacity, and it generates 1.6% of the country's power.
Wind power in Russia – Russia has a long history of small-scale wind power use, but the country has not yet developed large-scale commercial wind energy production. Wind power in Scotland – wind power is Scotland's fastest growing renewable energy technology, with 2,574 MW of installed capacity as of April 2011.
The Casselman Wind Power Project is a wind farm in Somerset County, Pennsylvania, with 23 GE 1.5 MW Wind Turbines that began commercial operation in 2007. The wind farm has a combined total nameplate capacity of 34.5 megawatts , but actually produces about 90,666 megawatt-hours of electricity annually. [ 1 ]
Mampuri-I was commissioned on 22 March 2010, and was the first wind farm in the country to reach the 10 MW installed capacity threshold. [1] [2] [3] As the government only allows projects up to 10 MW, the three wind farms are registered under three different company names, namely Senok Wind Power, Senok Wind Energy, and Senok Wind Resource.
The project was eventually approved with 9 turbines, one fewer than originally proposed. New Hampshire is a net power producer, generating more than is consumed. The output of Groton Wind is going to NStar, in Boston, and 55% of Granite is going to Vermont. [9] In 2010 New Hampshire produced 22 million MWh, and used 7.7 million MWh. [10]
Flat Ridge 1 was fully online by the middle of 2009, and is operated and maintained by BP's AE Power Services. [6] Flat Ridge 2 was initially developed by BP Alternative Energy for a capacity of 419.2 MW, and was then expanded by 51.2 MW to meet further demand. [7] [8] This phase consists of 294 GE 1.6 MW wind turbines. [9]
Developed by the Government of Canada, the software is multilingual, and includes links to wind energy resource maps. The Wind Data Generator (WDG) is a Wind Energy Software tool capable of running WRF (Weather Research and Forecasting) model to create a wind atlas and to generate wind data at resolutions of 3 km to 10 km.
