Successfully repowered: RWE has replaced the wind power turbines at the Krusemark-Ellingen wind farm with new, more powerful units. Six state-of-the-art turbines, each with a generation capacity of 3.3 megawatts (MW), replace the 15 systems, resulting in a substantial increase in the wind farm’s generation capacity despite the lower number of rotors.
The location now has a total installed capacity of 19.8 MW, compared to “only” 15.7 MW previously. That represents an increase of about a quarter. The new systems can provide a climate-neutral supply of electricity to more than 13,000 households.
Status: In operation
