The Schwarzenberg wind farm is a wind farm in the Marburg-Biedenkopf district . It is located in the area of the municipality of Breidenbach and the city of Biedenkopf . Together with the Weißenberg wind farm , both parks form a "wind farm". A total of nine systems in the eponymous area around the Schwarzenberg have been in operation since January 2017.
History and construction
In November 2015, approval was given by the regional council of Gießen and construction began in December 2015. The park is being planned by EAM Natur GmbH.
All the foundations for the facilities and five of the nine towers were completed in mid-August. Commissioning planned for December 2016 was postponed to the beginning of 2017.
The rotor blades of the turbines were delivered from September. For this purpose, the transport vehicles drive backwards from the junction of the B 253 in Breidenbach over the state road 3049 to Wolzhausen . The travel time for this is given as around one and a half hours. The journeys take place every night from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. and lead to traffic obstructions due to the road closure.
The wind farm started operations at the end of January 2017. For the project, 4 hectares of forest were cleared and 11.85 hectares were rededicated for industrial use.
business
The Schwarzenberg wind farm is equally owned by the municipal utilities of Biedenkopf and Breidenbach. The electricity is fed into a substation near the sewage treatment plant in Wallau.
In order to protect bats, the wind turbines are sometimes switched off at night, depending on the weather, from April to October. The wind farm for the crane train is also shut down for a few days twice a year.
The wind farm has a standard energy capacity of 64 million kilowatt hours per year.
Wind turbines and technology
The systems are from the manufacturer Nordex of the type N117 / 2400, each with an output of 2.4 megawatts. These result in an installed capacity of just under 21.6 MW. The wind turbines have a rotor diameter of 117 meters and a hub height of 141 meters. This results in a total height of around 200 meters.
