Construction has commenced on Mongolia’s first wind farm this month with SgurrEnergy mobilising personnel to live on site to support and guide the project through construction.
The US$ 100 million Salkhit project, comprising 31 GE wind turbines will generate 50MW. The Salkhit wind farm site is situated deep in the Mongolian Steppe, around 70km south of the capital city, Ulaanbaatar. With temperatures ranging from -40ºC in the winter to 40ºC in the summer, these extreme weather conditions present an interesting and exciting engineering challenge for the SgurrEnergy team, who will be based on site for the duration of the project.
