The reasons behind the output growth are improved wind conditions and
reliability compared with the previous year, head of Enefit Taastuvenergia Aavo Karmas
said in a press release. Electricity production increased in all four wind
farms.
"People can't control wind conditions, but the great work of engineers
for increasing the reliability of the wind turbines has to be
acknowledged," he said, adding that 107 GWh of electricity is enough to be
used by 43,000 households with average consumption for a year.
Estonia's wind farms produced 333 GWh of electricity in the first six
months of the year, 36% more than in the same period in 2016, Elering said. Of that 32% was produced
by Enefit Taastuvenergia. The total
capacity of Enefit's wind farms is
111 MW.
