Vikna Wind Farm (Norwegian: Vikna vindmøllepark) was a wind farm located on Husfjellet, just west of the village of Garstad on the island Mellom-Vikna in Nærøysund Municipality in Trøndelag county, Norway. The wind farm consisted of five wind turbines, with an installed capacity of 2.2 megawatts (3,000 hp) (calculated as 3 x 0.4 MW + 2 x 0.5 MW), with an average annual production of 5.8 gigawatt-hours (21 TJ). The wind farm began operation in 1991 and was owned by Nord-Trøndelag Elektrisitetsverk.[1] It was decommissioned in 2015.
