Banks Renewables four Yorkshire wind farms generated enough electricity to meet the needs of more than 35,000 homes in the company s last financial year.
The Penny Hill wind farm near Sheffield, the Hook Moor scheme to the east of Leeds, the Marr wind farm to the west of Doncaster and the Hazlehead wind farm to the west of Barnsley generated almost 110,000 Mwh of electricity between them over the 12 months to the end of September 2020.
They also displaced about 28,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide from the electricity supply network.
The six-turbine Penny Hill wind farm led the way by generating 43,500 MWh over 12 months, with the five-turbine Hook Moor scheme producing 27,850 MWh during the same period.
