It said that 19 wind turbines manufactured by Repower Systems SE with an overall installed capacity of 39 MW will be built over an area of 15 km2. The wind farm is due to be commissioned at the beginning of 2013 and will supply an equivalent of more than 50,000 homes with green electricity every year.
