A new 10 MW wind farm is planned for construction in Khmelnytskyi region, within the territory of the Letychiv community. The project is being implemented by Eco Wind Letychiv LLC, which has already launched the public consultation process and preparations for the project’s implementation.
According to the project documentation, the wind farm provides for the installation of two wind turbines. The capacity of each unit will range from 1.5 MW to 5 MW, while the total installed capacity of the plant will reach 10 MW. The specific turbine models will be determined at the detailed design stage.
The project’s technical specifications provide for the use of modern high-capacity wind turbines: the tower height may reach 200 meters, the rotor diameter up to 163 meters, and the maximum height of the structure to the upper tip of the blade up to 282 meters. These parameters classify the facility as a large-scale modern wind power plant.
According to the developers’ estimates, annual electricity generation will range from 3,500 MWh to 28,000 MWh, depending on the selected equipment and wind conditions in the region.
The infrastructure of the future power plant will include a 35/10(6) kV substation, power transmission lines of up to 35 kV, internal cable networks, as well as fiber-optic communication lines for real-time monitoring and dispatching of the facility.
Two land plots with a total area of 1.29 hectares are planned to be used for the wind farm. Since the land plots are designated for agricultural use, the project provides for changing their designated purpose to energy land.
The project initiator is Eco Wind Letychiv LLC, registered in November 2021 and specializing in electricity generation. According to open data, the company’s ultimate beneficial owner is Volodymyr Lisnyi.
The wind farm project in Khmelnytskyi region is in line with the broader trend of renewable energy development in Ukraine, where larger-scale initiatives by international and Ukrainian energy companies are also being implemented.
