o1
Starting work will be in road construction. In order to transport the heavy wind turbine components to the turbine locations, roads suitable for high traffic loads will be built and existing roads and junctions upgraded. Those roads will remain for future public use and after the construction phase of the wind farm, they will be available to everyone. As soon as the first roads are completed, the building of the excavation work at the turbine sites can start. A solid concrete foundation will serve as grounding for the wind turbines. Underground cables to conduct the electricity into the grid will be buried below ground next to the streets and covered with compacted soil.
o2
Within the wind park perimeter, there will be a collector-substation, where the underground cables of the turbines come together and from where the clean electricity will be guided with overhead lines to the new transmission-substation in proximity to the existing 330 kV powerline of the West African Power Pool (WAPP). At the transmission-substation, the electricity produced by the wind turbines is fed into the National Interconnected Transmission Grid (NITS).
o3
As there are no production companies of wind turbines in Ghana, turbines will be acquired from a reputable producer overseas. All parts, including the huge tower pieces and the blades (length up to 75 m resp. 245 ft.), will be shipped to Tema and from there transported with special vehicles to the wind farm site at Ayitepa.
