The project for a large wind farm between Ruvo, Terlizzi and Bitonto is ready – BitontoLive.it

A large wind farm could be built a few kilometers from our city. Last May 14, the Ministry of the Environment and Energy Security sent the Municipality of Ruvo di Puglia the request from the Milanese company Rdp for the installation of a wind farm.

The large structure involves the installation of eight wind turbines 200 meters high each, with a unit power of 7.2 MegaWatts, for a total power of 57.6 MegaWatts. Furthermore, a power storage system of 50 Megawatts and connection works to the national electricity transmission grid are planned.

The eight mammoth turbines will be connected by a network of cable ducts that will extend for 15 kilometres, touching various districts within the municipalities of Terlizzi and Bitonto and close to the municipality of Corato.

The locations affected are those of Difesa Comunale, Difesa Tarantini, Zio Venanzio – Bella Griffi, Patanella, Somma – Cicchetto, Polvino, Cilenti, Ciccio ficco.

The environmental impact assessment of the project is currently underway. As per practice, it will be possible to send comments and explore the project in more detail by drawing on the documentation prepared by the ministry
