Site Statistics
Location | North of Kincraig in Badendoch and Strathspey |
No of turbines | 31 |
Maximum Anticipated capacity | 3MW per turbine |
Maximum total capacity | 93M |
Homes supplied | 43,000 1 |
1 Homes equivalent. Assuming the proposed wind farm has an installed capacity of 77.5MW, based on thirty one 2.5 MW turbines erected on site. It has the potential to supply in the region of 43,000 homes. Predicted energy generation has been calculated using an assumed capacity 30% (DTI Energy Trends UK regional capacity factors 1998-2004) and is based on an installed capacity of 77.5MW (note that the installed capacity maybe higher or lower, subject to the final turbine choice). The energy capture predicted and the derived homes equivalent figures may change as site specific information is gathered. Equivalent homes supplied is based on annual electricity consumption per home of 47,00kWh. 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.
