Seven new wind turbines have been launched in Counties Tyrone, Antrim, Down and L'Derry this week.
The 250kW single turbines, based in Clogher, Moira, Dungannon, Fivemiletown, Castlerock, Drumbo and Ballygawley, were launched by Simple Power Chief Executive Philip Rainey.
He said: "We are delighted to complete the construction and commissioning of these seven turbines. The new turbines demonstrate growth, not only for Simple Power, but also for the wind industry in Northern Ireland. Despite many challenges, the outlook continues to be promising for the renewables sector.
"Wind power has the potential to be a significant economic significance for this country, we are lucky to have the wind resources at our disposal.
"Our work on farms across Northern Ireland also demonstrates the benefits of wind energy to the rural economy, as wind turbines enable farmers to turn their land into a sustainable source of income."
