Kivijärvi windfarm is located in the municipality of Laitila, in Southwestern Finland. The western boarder of the windfarm’s project area is approximately 12 km northeast of Laitila city center, and the northern boarder approximately 1 km south of lake Kivijärvi.
Axpo is investigating the possibility to develop a wind farm with three turbines, providing a total power capacity of up to 36 MW. The turbine hub height and rotor diameter are approximately 200 m and the max tip height 300 m. Once up and running, the wind farm will produce electricity for the needs of around 25 000 four-person households.
