Both wind farms utilizes a total of sixteen ReGen V82 wind turbines, which has an installed capacity of 1.5 MW per turbine. The turbines operate at 9–17.3 RPM, and has a rotor diameter of 82 m (269 ft) and a swept area of 5,325 m 2 (57,318 sq ft). The tubular tower section has a hub height of 85 m (279 ft), and is made up of four sections.
The wind farms together produces 52.56 GWh of electricity annually. A central control station, two indoor switch yards of 10MW each, 1kV/33kV transformers, and an administration building has been built in the Mullipuram Village to support the operations of the wind farm.

The installed electrical capacity and production of Sri Lanka by sources, from 2000 to 2018. Sri Lanka's electricity demand is currently met by nine thermal power stations, fifteen large hydroelectric power stations, and fifteen wind farms, with a smaller share from small hydro facilities and other renewables such as solar.
The proposed connection involves the linking of the national grids of India and Sri Lanka via Rameshwaram in south India and Talaimannar in north-west Sri Lanka. The project involves the construction of a HVDC connection between Madurai in southern India and Anuradhapura in central Sri Lanka, through the Palk Strait. The link would measure ...
The estimated project cost during initial planning was US$200 million; 78% of which borne by the Asian Development Bank, [1] while the remaining 22% by the developers, including the Ceylon Electricity Board. [2] It is the largest wind farm in Sri Lanka. [3] [4] [5] Denmark-based wind turbine manufacturer Vestas supplied the turbines for the ...
The Hambantota Wind Farm was a wind farm in Hambantota, Sri Lanka, owned and operated by the state-run Ceylon Electricity Board. The wind farm, which was located along south-eastern coast of Hambantota was the country's first state owned wind farm, and consisted of five NEG Micon M1500-600 wind turbines of 600 KW each. With a total installed ...
The largest machines were on 24-metre (79 ft) towers with four-bladed 23-metre (75 ft) diameter rotors. By 1908, there were 72 wind-driven electric generators operating in the United States from 5 kilowatts (kW) to 25 kW. Around the time of World War I, American windmill makers were producing 100,000 farm windmills each year, mostly for water ...
Sketch of the Power Plant. The developer of the project is Vallibel Power Erathna PLC [1] and the project is developed on a build, own and operate basis. The intention of the company is to generate 40 GWh [1] of green energy annually and to export it to the national electricity grid of the Ceylon Electricity Board which is the only authorised Institute for electricity transmission in Sri Lanka ...
