About South Kyle
South Kyle is an onshore wind farm in Strathclyde, Scotland, with 240 MW of generating capacity across one balancing mechanism unit: Elexon registers it at 427 MW, but Vattenfall gives it 240 MW, and that is the capacity this page uses. It is the 33rd 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 Greencoat UK Wind. 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 South Kyle as operational since June 2023, with 50 turbines of 4.8 MW, up to 150 m tall to the blade tip.
