I can't find any online logs of wind-farm output. Preferably live. Surely someone somewhere must be showing the output of their turbines?

This data would be very useful for things like verifying whether a farm produces as much energy as it was expected to, and how much wind energy is currently being produced.

Anyone here know of such data?

Not sure if it is still there but OFGEM publish the ROC values monthly for each registered generating station on an historical basis and, given 1 ROC per MWh, you can work out how much is being generated.

I know this is an old post and the information herein is also old'ish but i knew it was available as i found it a year ago and ran some numbers based on the attached production figures. I had trouble finding again but here it is. I will let you make up your own mind whether you think it is viable.  I cannot find any update on these figure for some reason?http://www.berr.gov.uk/files/file50164.pdf
