About Solwaybank
Solwaybank is an onshore wind farm in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland, with 30 MW of generating capacity across one balancing mechanism unit: Elexon registers it at 34 MW, but TRIG gives it 30 MW, and that is the capacity this page uses. It is the 139th largest of the 163 wind farms in GridMonkey's list of Britain's wind farms that report to Elexon, and is operated or mostly owned by TRIG. Every half hour it tells the grid how much it will generate (its physical notification). That is the live figure above, and GridMonkey has recorded it every half hour since 17 October 2026 for the chart.
The government's Renewable Energy Planning Database lists Solwaybank as operational since November 2020, with 15 turbines of 2 MW.
