LCG, December 29, 2005--San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E) began receiving electricity this week from the new Kumeyaay Wind Project. The wind farm, which has a generating capacity of 50 MW, was developed through a partnership between the global investment and advisory firm Babcock & Brown and GE Energy Financial Services.

The Campo Tribe will lease the land and receive payments on the electricity sold to SDG&E. The project schedule included an eight-month construction period and one month of testing.The State of California's Renewables Portfolio Standard (RPS) Program requires each utility, such as SDG&E, to increase its procurement of eligible renewable generating resources by 1% of load per year to achieve a 20% renewables goal. The RPS Program is managed by California's Public Utilities Commission and Energy Commission.
