Wind park in sea

While enjoying dinner on the beach in Holland (a memorable fact in itself) our view was of the princess Amalia windpark.

The opinions vary greatly but I think it is quite an amazing sight. I did some further research and found the following facts.

  • The park is located 23 km from the coast
  • it consists of 60 wind turbines
  • It cost €390 million to build
  • It generates green electricity for 125.000 households
  • It is fully functional 98% of the time

and here two more pictures taken from the official website: http://www.prinsesamaliawindpark.eu/nl/index.asp
