it will produce 960 megawatts
It will? What if there’s no wind? But still, that’s quite a lot. If it averages at about 40% of maximum capacity, that’s about a 400 MW power plant.

I’m really no expert, but i imagine they picked the location of wind farms specifically to maximise the time with useful wind. It seems kind of obvious. Their official site mentions average wind speed of 10,4 m/s at the He Dreiht location.

I am no expert either. But, as far as I know, the cut-off speed for wind farms is around 25 m/s. I assume that the maximum output is when wind speed is 25 m/s. 10,4 m/s is about 40 % of 25 m/s, which means that this power plant’s average production is about 400 MW.
