Rising on the Tylihul estuary, 80 km southwest of Mykolaiv city, the DTEK/Vestas turbines will be the tallest post-Independence structures in Ukraine. The blades will measure 162 meters from tip to tip, about 60% longer than the standard football field. If the 6 MW turbine hub is mounted atop a 100-meter tall tower, each windmill would rise 181 meters in the air. By contrast, the tallest building in Ukraine, Klovskii Descent 7A, rises 168 meters. The Duga radar array near Chornobyl rises 150 meters. Only the Kyiv TV Tower is taller — 385 meters.
