In January 2011 one of the wind turbines of Castle Pill Wind Farm near Milford Haven will have its generator replaced. According to the owner and operator Infinergy, the generator had not been achieving to its best ability and there are better generators available now that will increase expected outputs. The new generator should be in place within two working days.
The generator is located at the hub of the turbine. In order to have it replaced, the rotor (turbine blades and hub) will have to be temporarily removed. Both the cranes and generator will be transported to site within the next couple of days.
