The Renewables Infrastructure Group is paying £32m to acquire a 16MW wind farm at Kirkcaldy, Fife, Scotland. The Earlseat wind farm has eight Vestas V90 2.0 MW wind turbines and was grid-connected in June 2014. The farm is subsidised to the tune of 0.9 ROCs per MWh and has a 25-year operational life. Operations and maintenance services are provided by Vestas, with a power purchase agreement in place with GDF SUEZ.
TRIG’s portfolio now consists of 28 separate project investments with approximately 414 MW of aggregate installed capacity.
