Prony Windfarm

Description: The project activity involves six wind farms located in two different sites (Kafeate and Prony) in New Caledonia (NC). These wind-farms are owned and operated by Aerowatt a French based company. Between the years 2003 and 2009, Aerowatt installed 116 wind turbines at these two sites providing a total capacity of circa 31 MW with an estimated yearly production of 40 GWh. The generated electricity is exported to the New Caledonian grid. The project therefore replaces grid electricity that is at 80% produced by fossil-fuel power plants.
