A facility for harnessing wind energy in Scotland has been included among
the best initiatives of its kind by one expert.
Andrea Marino, a writer for Energy Digital, cited the fact that
the Clyde wind farm in Lanarkshire is set to be the largest
renewable energy project in Europe as a
reason for including it in the list of the world's most
impressive.
"With a proposed 152 wind turbines generating 548 megawatts and
the capacity to generate enough power for 320,000 homes, the Clyde
Wind Farm will significantly surpass [current largest] Whitelee in
size," commented the journalist.
The project is set to be completed in 2011 and will provide
renewable energy to the local area.
Also on the list were the Roscoe farms in Texas, the Piedra
Larga wind farm in Mexico and the Markbygden Vind AB facility in
Sweden.
The Scottish government revealed last year that more than £200
million of contracts will be made available for work on the
development of Clyde wind farm.
