Windpower Projects
– Introduction
Renewables First have full project capability and are experienced in taking a windpower project from the initial feasibility studies through the consenting stages and on to turbine installation.
For some clients we take consented sites and take care of everything at the installation stage to see the project through to completion.
Like all renewable technologies, wind power is a complicated area for the unfamiliar. There are good, mediocre and bad wind turbines out there, so it is important to work with a specialist wind company with experience and knowledge of how to deliver good quality and reliable projects.
Learn more about the details of windpower in our Windpower Learning Centre.
Wind projects – process chart
The chart below shows the process for taking a typical single 900 kW wind turbine project from start to finish. The quickest turnaround is 18 months, though it can be longer for sites with more complex planning applications.
Windpower Installation Phases
Are you considering a wind turbine project?
Careful assessment at an early stage can help establish whether a proposed site is technically, commercially and environmentally suitable for a wind turbine project. Renewables First can also help clients understand the wider commercial considerations involved in development. Explore our guidance on windpower financing and investing to learn more about potential approaches to funding a project.
Start With a Wind Turbine Feasibility Study
If you are interested in installing a wind turbine, the first step is to contact us to discuss your requirements and complete a Wind Turbine Feasibility Study. A feasibility study can help identify important site considerations before significant investment is made in planning and project development.
