    "... At the Hoppenbruch heap, everything revolves around wind energy.
    In addition to the wind power plant on the higher of the two peaks, the “Wind Power Sculpture Garden” is a popular destination. Each of the eight steel sculptures deals with a specific wind energy topic. Information boards also provide information on both general information on the subject of wind and technical data on the system on site. ... "

    A wind turbine serves as the landmark of the stockpile. In 1997 an Enercon E-66 with a capacity of 1.5 MW was built there, which was replaced in 2016 as part of a repowering project by a larger Enercon E-101 with twice the nominal power. With an annual production of approx. 2.5 million kWh, this increases to approx. 6.7 million kWh. The E-66 delivered around 43 million kWh by 2015, saving 32,000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions.

    The wind turbine is gigantic when you stand right next to it and look up.
