Wind farm company to explain its plans.

DONG Energy is going to double the size of the existing Walney offshore wind farm set to double the area of its existing wind farm by installing an extra 108 turbines. It will cover an area of up to 149 square km and generate up to 750 megawatts (MW) of electricity - enough to meet the average needs of about 657,000 homes.

Walney is the largest offshore wind farm in the world, generating 367 MW of electricity, sufficient to power about 320,000 homes. It was officially opened by UK Energy Secretary Edward Davey in February this year.

Minnesota wind farm to feature Gamesa's new low-wind turbines.

Exergy Development Group's 36 MW Big Blue Wind Farm, which will be built in south central Minnesota, will feature Gamesa's newest wind turbine model.

The G97-2.0 MW Class IIIA wind turbine is designed specifically for low-wind sites and features nacelle enhancements and a newer, more aerodynamic blade design that optimizes energy output.

Exergy will install 18 Gamesa turbines on 78-meter towers at the Big Blue Wind Farm in the city of Blue Earth, located in Faribault County, Minn., which rests along the state's border with Iowa.

Upon completion, the wind farm will be owned by Exergy’s subsidiary, Big Blue Wind Farm LLC. Northern States Power will purchase the offtake, which is enough to power about 20,000 homes per year, according to Gamesa.

The wind farm will be completed and operational by the end of the year.

Iberdrola plans to expand Europe's largest onshore wind farm.

Iberdrola's ScottishPower Renewables has submitted a planning application to the Scottish government for a five-turbine extension to the Whitelee Wind Farm, located near Glasgow.

The extension would generate up to 12 MW of renewable energy and increase the overall capacity of Europe's largest onshore wind farm to 551 MW. The initial 140 turbines at the Whitelee Wind Farm were fully completed in May 2009, and two additional extensions comprising 75 turbines have since been approved. Those 75 turbines have been constructed at the site. Commissioning is ongoing, with full power generation expected in early fall.

The five new turbines would be located to the west of the existing site in East Ayrshire.
