        Siemens  2.3MW                    Wind turbines produce electricity by harnessing the natural power of the 
                                          wind to drive a generator. 
        Electricity 
        Production  73MW                  Most commercial-scale wind turbines consist of rotor blades which rotate 
                                          around a horizontal hub. The hub is connected to a gearbox and generator, 
        Location :                        these are located inside the nacelle. The nacelle houses the electrical 
        Derry/Limavady                    components and is mounted at the top of the tower. 
        Investment by SSE :               The first wind farm in the UK was built at Delabole in 1991. Since then, 
        £125m                             onshore wind energy has established itself as a mature, clean energy-
