With the wind turbine commissioning complete, the turbine was officially handed over to Blacktoft Nursery. Four months later in spring sunshine, we returned to the site and took a selection of photographs of the 500 kW wind turbine in operation.
Blacktoft Nursery – 500 kW EWT Wind Turbine
EWT 500 kW turbine delivered and installed at Blacktoft Nursery
With the bulk of the civil engineering aspects of the Blacktoft Nursery project in place, the electrical and mechanical hardware can now be implemented. This transition was dramatically marked by the wind turbine delivery, which took place without a hitch a few days ago.
Turbine foundation construction near completion
As work on the the Blacktoft Nursery wind development progresses, final works to the turbine foundations are near completion.
Wind turbine foundations underway at Blacktoft
The last few weeks has witnessed excavation works and the construction of the turbine foundations. This is a major part of the Blacktoft scheme.
Access to wind turbine site at Blacktoft Nursery
Due to the location of Blacktoft Nursery, a new track is created to enable large vehicular access to the wind turbine site.
Wind turbine specification for Blacktoft Nursery
Blacktoft Nursery will soon be home to a single turbine wind development. The development will comprise an EWT DW54 Wind turbine with a generating capacity of 500 kW (0.5 MW).
Blacktoft Nursery wind turbine
The 500 kW wind turbine at Blacktoft Nursery could generate 1,726,095 kWh of electricity per year, which is equivalent to the amount of electricity used annually by 405 average households.
