Wigton wind farm in the parish of Manchester is Jamaica’s first wind energy project. The 23-turbine scheme, with an installed capacity of 20MW, was built by RES for Wigton Wind Farm Ltd, a subsidiary of the Petroleum Corporation of Jamaica (PCJ).
The Terms of Reference for conducting the Environmental Impact Assessment for the Wigton Wind Farm are here.
How electricity can be generated from wind power is explained with labeled diagrams showing the parts of the machinery used.

i think wind energy is a great way to go. clean renewable energy from jah.
