Hellrigg: Site Statistics
| Number of wind turbines | 4 |
| Installed capacity of project | 9.2 MWFN1 |
| Number of average homes supplied | Around 5700 homes each year1 |
Notes
FN1
Energy predicted to be generated by the proposal is derived using wind speeds monitored in the local area and correlating to a Met. Office station providing longer term data. This enables a calculation to be made to estimate the average annual energy production for the site based on four turbines each of rated capacity 2.350 MW. The energy capture predicted and hence derived homes equivalent or emissions savings figures may change as further data are gathered.
Equivalent homes supplied is based on an annual electricity consumption per home of 4700 kWh. This figure is supported by recent domestic electricity consumption data available from The Digest of UK Energy Statistics and household estimates and projections from the UK Statistics Authority.
