Click 'huge' to see the full sized image if you want to read the facts. A few: 55 turbines power about 32300 homes. Towers 70m tall, each blade 35 m long. If that doesn't mean much to you, think of it this way. The blades turn gracefully about 1 turn every 3 seconds. So the tips travel 220 m in 3 seconds, which is around 260 km/h. I can tell you, when you are standing directly underneath that blade... then it looks fast! |
