Zabol Wind Farm Project Gains Momentum

Construction of a wind farm in Mil-e-Nader Wind Farm zone in Zabol, Sistan-Baluchestan Province, has gained momentum as 10 more turbines each with a capacity of 2.5 MW have arrived at the site, head of the renewable energy department at the provincial power company said.
“The 50-megawatt farm will have 20 wind turbines.  Five are already in place and linked to the national grid and the rest are being installed,” Babak Zahed was quoted as saying by IRNA.
The turbines are equipped with a permanent magnet direct-drive system in which the turbine and generator are hinged to form a compact and structurally integrated unit.
