The Setana wind turbines is a key infrastructure asset in Japan's power generation grid, located on the continent of Asia. Designated as a renewable electricity generation station, the facility features an installed capacity of 0 MW. Its primary operation relies on harnessing wind energy resources to generate bulk electricity. Operational management and ownership of the facility are handled by the Setana Wind Power Co., Ltd., which oversees daily maintenance and grid dispatch integration. The facility was officially connected to the commercial grid in 2012, since which it has maintained regular output, playing a structured role in domestic power supply security. In terms of domestic production capacity within Japan, Setana wind turbines occupies the #7 position among all operational wind power plants. Its 0 MW capacity represents a 0.00% share of Japan's total installed wind generating capacity, which currently stands at 150 MW. The largest operational wind installation in Japan is the Kasadori with an output of 38 MW, making the Setana wind turbines approximately 1.0 times smaller by comparison. Across all fuel types and electricity generation technologies country-wide, this facility accounts for 0.0000% of Japan's aggregate generation capacity of 358,713 MW. Based on historical capacity factors characteristic of wind power plants (modeled at 30% for analysis), the facility's expected annual electricity generation is calculated at approximately 0 MWh. Applying domestic consumption statistics where an average household in Japan consumes 3 MWh of electricity annually, this level of production is sufficient to meet the energy demands of roughly 0 homes. As a clean and sustainable energy project, Setana wind turbines contributes to the direct displacement of greenhouse gases, preventing substantial quantities of carbon dioxide from entering the atmosphere and helping Japan advance toward its renewable energy integration targets. The physical site of the station is located at geographic coordinates 42.4432° latitude and 139.8391° longitude. A review of spatial data shows no other significant power generating installations within 50 kilometers, demonstrating the plant's solitary role in serving localized regional demand centres. This geographic placement is vital for reinforcing regional distribution infrastructure and minimizing transmission line losses across this sector of Japan.
