SSE has erected the first Enercon E-92 2.35MW turbine at its 18.8MW Slieve Divena 2 wind farm in County Tyrone in Northern Ireland.
The eight-turbine project near Ballygawley is due to be connected to the grid this month, with first power to be exported soon afterwards, SSE said.
SSE project manager for Slieve Divena 2 Pat Tierney said: “The erection of the first turbine is a big milestone for the project, and we’re delighted to reach this point within our timescale targets.
“We’re now looking forward to getting the rest of the turbines up and running safely, as well as the site’s first export to the grid.”
