Cotentin Wind Farm
The Cotentin wind farm is located
near the village of Sortosville-en-Beaumont in the county of the Manche
in Basse-Normandie.
It's the very first wind farm to be built in this county
and benefits from a good 8 m/s wind speed.
The farm is comprised of 5 x
1.5 MW GE wind turbines, making a total installed capacity of 7.5 MW.
The production of electricity is estimated
at 20 GWh/year. This is enough energy to supply the needs of 8,000 people
and avoids sending 8,100 tonnes of CO2 per year into the atmosphere.
