“A strong wind is blowing over the Limfjord” is the title of a beautiful Danish song about northern Jutland. Indeed, the wind is a decisive factor when choosing locations for wind turbines. The 13 turbines along the coast between Aggersund and Nibe together make up Nørrekær Enge Wind Farm.
In 2009, the 77 old wind turbines at Nørrekær Enge were replaced with 13 large and more efficient ones. The old wind turbines were recycled and they are now producing environmentally friendly electricity in Cuba.
Nørrekær Enge is the first of Vattenfall's wind farms to have local shareholders as co-owners.
