Comment on electricity generation
The Brandvalley Wind Farm project was originally authorized to install 58 turbines with a total capacity of 140 MW. However, after several amendments, the number of turbines was reduced to 32, with each turbine having an increased capacity of up to 7 MW, while maintaining the total project capacity at 140 MW. These changes were made possible due to advancements in turbine technology, which allow for greater energy generation per unit.
