Wind farm planned for Welsh coal mine site
Alstom Wind has signed a contract with Welsh company Pennant Walters for the construction of a new wind farm - Alstom's first wind farm contract in Wales.
The 26MW Maesgwyn wind farm, to be built on the site of the former Maesgwyn and Derlwyn coal mines north of Glyn-neath, South Wales, will comprise 13 wind turbines and is expected to become operational in October 2010.
The project is Alstom's second wind farm in the UK. Contracts for the first, in Clachan Flats, Scotland, were signed earlier this year.
The project is Alstom's second in Wales. It is also building a gas-fired station in Pembroke.
