The Hiyamizutouge project will feature seven wind turbines, each with a capacity of 4.2 MW. Together, the turbines will provide a total installed capacity of 29.4 MW.
The project will be located in Aomori Prefecture, an area of northern Japan that has significant potential for wind power generation.
Supporting Japan’s Renewable Energy Goals
The development is part of the broader expansion of renewable energy infrastructure in Japan. Wind farms can help diversify the country’s electricity mix while increasing the share of locally generated renewable power.
By installing modern, high-capacity turbines, the Hiyamizutouge project is expected to contribute to the growth of wind energy generation in the region.
GE Vernova to Supply Wind Turbines
GE Vernova will provide the turbines for the project. The use of seven 4.2 MW machines will allow the wind farm to achieve its planned 29.4 MW capacity while making use of modern wind-generation technology.
A New Addition to Aomori’s Wind Energy Sector
Aomori has emerged as an important location for renewable energy development in Japan, particularly for wind power. The Hiyamizutouge project adds another large-scale renewable energy facility to the prefecture.
Once developed, the 29.4 MW wind farm will strengthen Eurus Energy’s presence in Japan’s renewable energy sector and add new wind-generation capacity to the country’s power infrastructure.
1. Where will the Hiyamizutouge wind project be located?
The project will be developed in Aomori Prefecture, Japan.
2. How many turbines will the wind farm have?
The wind farm will feature seven turbines, each rated at 4.2 MW.
