The former Wieringermeer wind farm was officially renamed Princess Ariane Wind Farm during an opening ceremony. It consists of 82 wind turbines and will generate renewable electricity equalling the demand of approximately 370,000 households.
What is also unique for this wind farm is that four of the wind turbines have been built in the Robbenoord woods. Thanks to the good collaboration with Staatsbosbeheer (Dutch Governmental Nature Reserve Management Agency), it is the first time in the Netherlands that wind turbines have been placed in the woods.
