Case Study: Wind farm in Tralee, Ireland

Download Case Study: PDF Icon EnglishEnglish | PolskiPolski

Abstract

Wind energy is not the energy source that immediately comes to mind when thinking about renewable energy in cities. Few cities have enough space within their area to build large wind farms. You may rather find small wind turbines on suitable locations within the city's area or see cities doing feasibility studies on this subject. However, in Ireland was developed a wind farm of approximately 15 MWe, only 8 km away from Tralee. This project is a partnership of an Irish and an English company.
