Ten Mile Lagoon Wind Farm
Ten Mile Lagoon wind farm is situated on a coastal ridge 16 kilometres west of Esperance in Western Australia, and it lies in the northern extremities of the reliable Roaring Forties winds. It was Australia's first commercial wind farm that is still operating, and consists of nine 225 kW Vestas wind turbines〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Horizon Power - Esperance Wind Farms )〕 giving a total generating capacity of just over 2 Megawatts.〔(Wind farms in Western Australia )〕 The farm was established in October 1993, after the successful operation of a smaller experimental wind farm at Salmon Beach, Esperance.
Esperance is an isolated town and it is not connected to the electricity grid. Before the installation of wind turbines, the electrical needs of Esperance town and surrounding districts were supplied solely from a diesel power station. The Ten Mile Lagoon wind farm works in conjunction with the power station and reduces the amount of electricity needed to be generated by diesel power.〔(Ten Mile Lagoon Wind Farm )〕
Considerable care has been taken in the design and construction of the wind farm to ensure the least possible disturbance to the natural environment.〔
