The aim of the preparation of the partial master plans for the Konikallio wind farm is to enable the location of the wind farm in the area and to enable the implementation of a maximum of 15 wind farms in the planning area. The unit power of each wind farm is approximately 6–10 MW and the total height of the wind farms is a maximum of 350 metres. The wind farm will consist of wind farms with their foundations, underground cables or overhead lines connecting them, and the wind farm substation. The wind farm will be connected to the electricity grid of the distribution network company Caruna Oy via a new, approximately 14–15 km long 110 kV power line, which will be implemented as an overhead line or underground cable. The total area of the plan area is approximately 14 km², of which approximately 8 km² is located in the Ikaalinen area and approximately 6 km² in the Hämeenkyrö area.
