The meduim wind sector in the country has been successfully mainly due to the support given by the government in the form of Feed-in-Tariff.

Norvento’s reactions come in support of RenewableUK’s call for the reintroduction of 15KW FiT bracket and a slower rate of support degression for the sub-500KW wind sector.

According to RenewableUK’s ‘Small and Medium Wind UK Market Report, the small-scale wind industry is being hit by the current FIT policy.

The deployment rates in the sub-15KW wind market have declined by 77%.

Meanwhile, the medium wind market has witnessed growth and around 70MW of capacity has been installed in 2014 alone.

The revenue of the UK’s small and medium wind’s market exceed £174m last year.

Norvento UK business development director Ivo Arnús said: "The FiT regime in medium wind has been under a lot of scrutiny of late, but arguably not for the right reasons.

"If the UK medium wind market is to sustain current momentum and maintain its industry-leading status, it’s crucial that firms throughout the supply chain are given time to develop economies of scale and thereby lay the foundations for future success."

The wind industry has reduced the capex costs of a standard medium wind project by approximately 11% on average, since the introduction of the small and medium wind FiT in 2010.

Since 2012, small and medium wind turbines have increased their electricity generation to over 391GWh.
