At its altitude of up to 800 meters, mean annual wind speeds are what by Turkish standards is a low 6.6 m/s. Accordingly, the N117/2400 turbine is to be used. With its design, this turbine is specifically configured for locations with light average wind speeds. Nordex will be supplying the turbines on towers with a hub height of 91 metres. When it goes into operation with 20 turbines in 2015, the 48 MW wind farm will generate 130,000 MWh of clean electricity.
