Wörrstadt energy park
The Wörrstadt energy park is located southeast of the small town of Wörrstadt in the Rhine-Hesse region, near the federal motorway 63 and the federal highway 420 . The energy park consists of a solar park and a wind park with a total of 22 wind turbines (as of 2012) .

The solar park, which consists of 76,890 First Solar thin-film photovoltaic modules with an annual yield of around 5.6 GWh , has been located on a former agricultural site between Wörrstadt and Spiesheim since autumn 2008 . The module area is 55,360 square meters, the substructure consists of 1,590 module tables from Schletter Leichtmetallbau GmbH with a total of seven solar inverters .
The maximum output calculated under the idealized Watt Peak model is around 5.6 MW , the average output resulting from the annual yield is 0.64 MW. The Wörrstadt solar park generated a total of 20.371 GWh of electrical energy from autumn 2008 to March 4, 2013, which corresponds to an average output of 0.52 MW achieved over this longer calculation period.

A total of 22 turbines, belonging to three different turbine types, are used in the wind farm.
Enercon E-82
The Wörrstadt wind farm was inaugurated in autumn 2009 with five gearless turbines of the type Enercon E-82 with a nominal output of 2 MW each . In 2010, five more Enercon E-82 E2 systems followed , with a nominal output increased to 2.3 MW. The total output is thus 21.5 MW.
Each wind turbine has an output of 2 or 2.3 MW. The hub height of all 10 turbines is 138 meters, the rotor diameter 82 meters. A rotor blade weighs about 8 tons, the entire rotor including the hub and the three blades about 49.5 tons. The nacelle without rotor and generator weighs 21 tons. The tower is manufactured as a precast concrete- steel hybrid tower and has a weight of around 1,700 tons, with the concrete portion making up 93 percent and the steel portion making up the remaining 7 percent. The foundation is 3.45 meters deep and 22.3 meters in diameter. The weight of the foundation is around 1,800 tons (of which around 50 tons are steel).
The rotor speed is 6 to 19.5 revolutions per minute. Electricity production begins at wind force 1 to 2 (2.5 meters per second), the storm shutdown takes effect at wind force 11 to 12, which would correspond to 35 meters per second in a hurricane-like storm or hurricane .
Enercon E-101
In 2011 a total of 7 Tys Enercon E-101 wind turbines were installed. These systems have a rotor diameter of 101 meters and a nominal output of 3 MW. They were erected on hybrid towers with a hub height of 135 meters. The total height is 186 meters. One of the seven plants is owned by the Verbandsgemeinde Wörrstadt . This makes it the first municipality in Rhineland-Palatinate to buy a wind turbine and operate it itself.
Kenersys K100
In 2012 the wind farm was enlarged. Five more wind turbines were added to the Gabsheim district on the border with Biebelnheim. Five Kenersys K100 wind turbines, each with a nominal output of 2.5 MW and a rotor diameter of 100 meters, have been set up along the federal motorway 63 between Schornsheim and Udenheim.
