4 FEBRUARY 2013: TWO TURBINES UP, FIVE TO GO!

We've seen some exciting progress in recent weeks at The Grange Wind Farm. Most components from the turbine deliveries have now been received on site and the second of seven turbines was successfully erected last week. If weather conditions continue to be favourable, all seven turbines should be up by the end of February.

Once all of the turbines are in place they will undergo a period of rigorous testing and commissioning before the wind farm can be declared fully operational.  We expect the first green power to be generated at the site during February, and are currently on track for the site to become fully operational during April.  This in turn will trigger the first instalment of RES' Community Benefit Fund of £28,000 per year for investment in local projects.
