Wind farm layout

Lillgrund Wind Farm is located about 10 km off the coast of southern Sweden, just south of the Öresund Bridge, where average wind speeds are 8 to 10 metres per second (26 to 33 ft/s). With 48 wind turbines (Siemens SWT-2.3-93) and a capacity of 110 megawatts (MW), Lillgrund is Sweden's largest offshore wind farm.^[1] It was designed to meet the domestic electricity demand of more than 60,000 homes.^[2] The farm's turbines have a rotor diameter of 93 metres and a total height of 115 metres.^[3]^[1]

A 2016 study found no significant effect on marine life.^[4]^[5]

The music video for "Peroxide", a song by British-Swedish singer Ecco2K included on his studio album E (2019), was filmed at the Lillgrund Wind Farm.^[6]
