Setter Farm Wind Turbines - Tingwall

Installation: 3x SDWE SD6 6kW grid connected wind turbines on 15m towers

Nordri specified, supplied and installed a three wind turbine system for a dairy farm in Shetland. With all the machinery for milking the cows, plus a busy farm and agricultural contracting business the farm had high electricity use.

Nordri designed a system to make best use of the 3-phase plus single phase connections at the farm, as well as meeting the strict criteria of the local grid requirements.

Two of the turbines supply the 3-phase connection for the main farm connection, with a split phase turbine feeding 2-phases, and the other turbine feeding the 3rd phase and also a dump heater which can warm the workshop.

The third turbine supplies the farm house single phase connection, meaning the 3 machines help to reduce the electricity consumption for both the farm business and the house.

The 3 turbines have been running for 6 years and have produced over 325mWh of renewable energy to the farm, house and local grid.
