Wind farm installation is due to start later this year, while commissioning is seen in 2023\/2024.<\/p>\n<p>Enercon will also maintain the Kirk Hill turbines once they begin operation.<\/p>\n<p>Ripple Energy is a platform that offers consumers to purchase shares in large-scale wind projects. Once the wind farm starts generating electricity, citizen-investors, through Ripple\u2019s supply partners, can expect to see savings on their power bills.<\/p>\n<p>As Ripple explains, the firm manages the construction and other project phases, but does not own the wind farm. The ownership is in the hands of the co-op and co-investors.<\/p>\n<p>According to Ripple, Kirk Hill is fully sold out.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/newsletter.renewablesnow.com\/subscribe\" rel=\"noopener\">Join Renewables Now&#8217;s free daily newsletter now!<\/a><\/p>\n<p>                        <!-- Article End --><\/p><\/div>\n<p>    !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s) {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?<br \/>\n    n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};<br \/>\n    if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version=&#8217;2.0&#8242;;<br \/>\n    n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;<br \/>\n    t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];<br \/>\n    s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, document,&#8217;script&#8217;,<br \/>\n    &#8216;https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js&#8217;);<br \/>\n    fbq(&#8216;init&#8217;, &#8216;330050901500094&#8217;);<br \/>\n    fbq(&#8216;track&#8217;, &#8216;PageView&#8217;);<\/p>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/renewablesnow.com\/news\/enercon-turbines-picked-for-188-mw-consumer-owned-wind-project-in-scotland-785582\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>May 23 (Renewables Now) &#8211; German wind turbine manufacturer Enercon GmbH has booked an order to supply its hardware for an 18.8-MW consumer-owned wind farm project in Scotland.
