KNOW MORE

The load factor is the relation between the energy effectively generated by a farm along a period of time and the maximum it would be possible to produce in ideal conditions, along the same period of time. It is about not only the quality of wind but also the good performance and availability of the technology in the farm thanks to the best practices of operation and maintenance.
