Lillgrund Wind Farm is located about 10 km off the coast of southern

megawatts (MW), Lillgrund is Sweden's largest offshore wind farm.[1]
It was designed to meet the domestic electricity demand of more than 60,000 homes.[2] The farm's turbines have a rotor diameter of 93 metres and a total height of 115 metres.[3][1]

A 2016 study found no significant effect on marine life.[4][5]
