ERG completes 77.3 MW of wind projects in the UK, France

ERG SpA has started the commercial operations of 77.3 MW of wind farms in the UK and France.

In the UK, the 46.8 MW Evishagaran and 23.5 MW Craiggore projects, both in Derry in Northern Ireland, have started production. The facilities are subsidy-free wind farms.

Evishagaran features 13 Vestas V112-3.6MW turbines while Enercon units are spinning at Craiggore.

ERG has commissioned the 7 MW Vallée dell'Aa wind farm in Pas-de-Calais, in Upper France.

All three sites will have an overall production at full capacity of approximately 268GWh per year, making it possible to avoid the emission of 130,000 tons of CO2 every year, said ERG.
