Goonhilly Downs Wind Farm (Wind , Closed) Location in the UK : England, Cornwall, Kerrier
Type of installation: Wind on/offshore: on
Turbines :14 Capacity : 0 MW
Approx Date of 1st power generation: April 1993
Wind Turbines, Wind Farm, Renewable Energy, Green Power
/YES
Now see Goonhilly repowering (and renewables solar also-no space for link).
Each of the 14 turbines which have operated successfully at Goonhilly since 1993 has a capacity of 400 kW. This gives the current wind farm a total capacity of 5.6 MW.
These could be replaced by seven new turbines - taller and turning more slowly. Each would have a capacity of up to 3 Megawatts, giving a combined capacity of approximately 21 Megawatts. If that happens, Goonhillys annual output of emissions-free electricity can leap ahead from about 11,000 Megawatt hours (MWh) to over a new level of over 60,000 MWh.
