*DRONE* Betws Wind Farm + Upper Lliw Reservoir

Mynydd y Betws is the site of a wind turbine farm. It was granted planning permission in 2009 and started producing electricity in 2013. The original developers of the site were the renewable energy generating company Eco2, but in 2010, they sold the site to the Irish semi-state electricity utility ESB. The mast of each turbine is 70 m (230 ft) tall and the blades are 40 m (131 ft) long. With fifteen turbines, the wind farm has an installed capacity of 34.5 MW and is said to generate enough electricity to power 23,800 households, one third of the domestic usage in Carmarthenshire. The Mynydd y Betws Wind Farm community benefit fund provides grants for projects in neighbouring areas of Carmarthenshire, Swansea and Neath Port Talbot. Set in the stunning mountain scenery that characterises the Mawr, north of Swansea, the Upper and Lower Lliw Resevoirs are open to the public all year round. With walking routes, fishing, watersports, cafe and a sculpture trail, there’s plenty on offer for the visitor. There are walks for everyone; from a short wander round a reservoir to an open moorland route of over ten miles. There’s also a four mile route suitable for wheelchairs and pushchairs. The lower and upper Lliw reservoirs are surrounded by a mosaic of habitats including bracken, scrub broadleaved woodland lowland acid grassland. Both sites support a wide diversity of flora and fauna, many of which are considered rare. Birds identified on site include: peregrine, kestrel, raven, wheatear, meadow pipit & skylark, whinchat, red kite and curlew. #mychannel #dronefootage #youtube #dronevideo #dji #drone #betwsmountain #lliwreservoir
