Byram wind farm as it might appear approaching Burton Salmon
- 9 turbines tower over the village as seen from Ledgate Lane
In the background - Eggborough power station - generates up to 1960 Mega watts when required - on average it produces about 1000 MWatts.
In the foreground, towering over the village, 9 turbines with a theoretical maximum output of 22.5Mwatts - produced only in a steady wind of over 27mph and no power when the wind is less than 9mph.
Average will be 5 to 6 Mwatt or under half a percent of the power produced by Eggborough.
Power that is as unpredictable as the wind.
