This would be achieved by installing 3,75MW of photovoltaic systems, 100 hectares of forest and three wind turbines of 2,3 MW each. The project was aimed to have a total installed peak power of 5MW. The residential area has been built up since 2002 and the development will be completed in 2008/09. Due to mainly financing problems the goal of 3,75MW in ‘suncity’ Heerhugowaard has been lowered to 2,45MW. |
