He inaugurated the largest wind farm

Wind power is a new form of energy such as solar energy, nuclear energy, bioenergy . being developed by many countries in the world to meet the increasing demand for electricity and at the same time. reducing greenhouse gas emissions causing climate change.

On September 23, Britain inaugurated the world's largest wind farm in the sea.Swedish energy company Vattenfall built this farm from two years ago with a cost of £ 780 million ($ 1.22 billion).

The new wind (or wind) farm is an area of ​​35km ² in the North Sea, 12km from the England coast. Currently the farm has 100 turbines, each 115m high, which can generate 200,000 electricity for households. He currently has 250 active wind farms, including offshore farms, with a total of 2,909 turbines.

In the future, the number of turbines in the farm will increase to 341 units with a total capacity of 300 MW, increasing the capacity of Britain's renewable electricity production to 5 GW.

Energy and Climate Change Minister Chris Huhne evaluates the wind power plant's operation as progressive in its efforts to produce wind power. He stressed that the island nation, Britain needs to maximize the energy source from wind and tide to become the world's leading country in the field of producing renewable energy.

Environmental experts also welcomed the operation of the new wind power plant, but urged the British government to build a power reserve device that would not be used in case the weather was calm and actively exploit energy sources. Other regeneration.
