Renewable energy firm RWE Innogy has begun operations at its 14MW Krzecin onshore wind energy facility developed and constructed by Gamesa in Western Pomerania, Poland.
The wind farm comprises seven Gamesa G90-2.0 MW wind turbines, which generate 2MW of electricity each and have a hub height of 100m with a rotor diameter of 90m.
RWE Innogy CEO Hans Bünting said, "Onshore wind power makes a significant contribution to the expansion of renewable energies in Poland, not least as a result of the excellent wind power locations and the attractive business environment."
The wind project generates nearly 30,000MWh of electricity annually, which is enough to power more than 15,000 Polish households for a year.
The facility is expected to avoid 350000 tons of CO2 emissions annually.
The commissioning of the wind farm will increase RWE Innogy’s Polish wind energy portfolio to 122MW.
