Many FiT (Feed in Tariff) scale turbine models were based on technology developed in the 1980s when the wind industry began to emerge in Denmark and northern Germany. As such, the designs of many early FiT turbines erected in the UK were typically smaller capacity machines based on technology from a previous era. This resulted in limitations both in terms of output capacity and overall performance.

Many of these early wind turbine manufacturers no longer exist and the machines are now obsolete. Infinite offer all the services required to remove these wind turbines and repower with new models to maximise the returns from obsolete turbine development sites.

Pen yr Heol farm initially contacted Infinite to assist them after they were saddled with an abandoned turbine project. As the existing turbine was unsafe for operation, Infinite arranged for the deinstallation of the turbine. A fresh planning permission was obtained for a larger EWT 900kw wind turbine which was installed and commissioned in 2023. The site benefits from good wind speeds of over 7 metres/sec and it is estimated that the turbine will generate almost 3 million kWh of clean renewable energy per annum. This equates to enough power to supply around a third of all residential properties within the parish of New Tredegar – around 750 residential properties.

The integrated on-roof solar PV and battery scheme supplies power to a local farm business and will help to fuel the expansion of an equine centre.
