Huge Wind farm and Whiteadder Reservoir in Scotland

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE : Blessed with strong, steady winds coming off the North Sea, Scotland has already at times hit the once-unthinkable target (for any major region) of generating 100% of its electricity needs from windpower. In this drone video by Hightning McQueen, you'll get an aerial view of one of Scotland's largest wind farms - the Crystal Rig Wind Farm in the Scottish Borders region. Commissioned in 2004 and the second-largest in the UK as of 2019, it currently has 85 turbines and a rated capacity of a bit over 200MW.

BADGES THIS VIDEO HAS EARNED:

A couple of places i filmed on a rare sunny Bank Holiday Monday. I believe the wind farm is the second biggest in Scotland. At the reservoir, the plug was turned off which is what i really wanted to film. Still pretty cool though.
