Moel Maelogan is a hill on the western edge of Mynydd Hiraethog in north Wales, and overlooking the Conwy Valley. It is known mostly as the general location of a wind farm.
The initial three turbines were erected in 2002, and started generating in January 2003; each turbine is capable of producing 1300 kW. This scheme marked erection of the UK wind industry's 1000th turbine and was initially welcomed, as it had been set up by three local farmers to boost their incomes, under the name of Cwmni Gwynt Teg . After commissioning, however, it was opposed by some, not least because, although not located in the Snowdonia National Park itself, the turbines are visible from many parts of it.
