Commissioned: 1998
Owner: Vattenfall
Production capacity: 19 MW (based on original number of turbines)
Turbines: 19 two-bladed NedWind 55, 60-metre tall tower and a 55-metre rotor diameter, of which 17 were still standing at the start of 2023
Turbine power: 1 MW
Decommissioned by: FairWind as the main contractor, with Mammoet for the lifting work, and Danish Kingo for the removal of civil work items such as foundation, roads and cables.
Remarks:

Not only is this wind farm unique, for being the only wind farm left in the Netherlands with NedWind 55 turbines, it is also unique for its multi-coloured towers. The tower of each of units by Dutch design was painted in a different colour, representing the colours of the surrounding countryside or, some would say, of the rainbow.

In January 2023, one turbine collapsed due to a vibrated pitch cylinder, this resulted in the dismantling being brought forward.
