ABRBO-1 · 96.8 MW · evidenced from 2021-11-18
Vattenfall commissioned screening report, section 2.1: installed capacity 96.8 MW from eleven 8.8 MW turbines. Document dated 5 November, figure-corrected 17 November 2021; evidence starts the next complete UTC day. Proposed hydrogen equipment is excluded. Earlier 93.2 MW and conflicting 2020 report figures do not establish the preceding capacity transition. The later rounded 96 MW portfolio value is not evidence of a physical change.

Operator capacity sourceWhole-site registered total: 99 MW, including retired units.
Registered capacity is the value retained in the committed BM-unit source snapshot. “Not retained” means the registry no longer supplied a positive figure; it does not mean the unit historically had no capacity. If a unit with a retirement event publishes a non-zero live declaration, the live declaration keeps it in the operating fleet pending review.
