Edintore Wind Farm
Koehler Renewable Energy and vento ludens commissioned Edintore Wind Farm, which consists of 6 Enercon E-92 wind energy converters, at the start of 2017. These were the first turbines of their kind to be built in Scotland. The site is operating at full capacity and powering up to 12,000 homes annually.
Construction started in July 2015 with the ground works including new onsite tracks. The terrain made this especially difficult due to its steep topography. Nicolas Christoph, Managing Director of KRE UK Ltd. said, “the Enercon Installation team and local contractors worked hard to construct groundworks and install the turbines as per programme. We are delighted that the wind farm is now energised and operating after a very successful construction phase.”
During operation the wind turbines are serviced and maintained by a dedicated service team based in Moray and the site continues to host grazing cattle and sheep in addition to small areas of woodland.
