/YES
A wind farm has existed at Burgar Hill for many years, having acted as a wind turbine test station since the 1980s. The site was selected in 2001 for two additional turbines by npower renewables, in conjunction with Orkney Sustainable Energy.
NB Clearly 5 turbines on site. The site currently has six turbines, varying in scale from the Nordex N60 1.3MW turbine, to the 2.75MW Neg Micon NM92; tip heights vary from 76m to 116m. The site has been designed by Orkney Sustainable Energy to take advantage of the rolling nature of the landscape, and by positioning the largest turbines off the highest ground and placing the smallest turbines on the exposed hilltops, the site layout appears well balanced.
