Infinergy has achieved financial close for the 6.9MW Mean Moor wind project near Ulverston in Cumbria.
Triodos Bank, which acted as sole mandated lead arranger, is providing debt financing for the £9m project.
Infinergy said Mean Moor will consist of three Enercon E70 2.3MW turbines and is part of a five-turbine project known as the Furness wind farm.
It said that work to install the wind turbines and supporting site infrastructure is currently underway and the project is scheduled to be fully operational by the summer.
Ownership and development is split between Infinergy and community energy co-operative Baywind Energy – which owns the remaining two turbines.
Enercon is also providing a 15-year service package, with Infinergy providing asset management services.
Infinergy said the balance of plant contractor is Raymond Brown Renewables, with Power Systems UK providing the electrical design and installation for the onsite and offsite ICP connection works.
Upgrades to the transport route were carried out by local firm Colin Briscoe Construction, Infinergy said.
Electricity generated by the wind farm will be sold to NEAS Energy under a 15-year power purchase agreement.
Law firm Burges Salmon advises Mean Moor on development and financing of the wind farm.
