minus-square@jjagaimo@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglish3•6 months agoAccording to their website 12 turbines generating a total of 132MW => 11MW each So not the largest available but then again that’s likely better for cost
minus-squareMaëlyslinkfedilink2•6 months agowhats the repercussions of this footprint wise? According to google a 2Mw turbine requires 0.006 km², so a 0.33Gwc of capacity per km². i wonder also how long does a windmill work per day, when averaged yearly …
minus-square@mosiacmangolink2•edit-26 months agoStill pretty amazing. Means each turbine alone will power around 10k homes.
