Wind Energy for Your Place
If you are interested in wind energy for your region, community, farm or business the NZ Wind Energy Association can provide more details.
In choosing a suitable site for the potential development of a wind farm or wind turbine, five key variables need to be assessed at an early stage:
1. Proximity to a distribution line of appropriate voltage and capacity
2. Ease of establishing suitable road access to the site
3. Suitability of the site for building a wind farm
4. Absence of significant resource consent issues
5. Annual mean wind speed
