The Brotherton wind farm consists of two wind turbines which have been built with support from Thrive's mezzanine loan into the project and following a relationship and approach established at the Gevens wind farm.
The project was constructed and began exporting renewable electricity to the grid in May 2017. The turbines have a capacity of 4.6MW and are forecast to produce the equivalent demand of over 3,000 UK homes.
