ACCIONA Energy Targets Completion of Two Wind Projects by End of 2008
LCG, October 21, 2008--ACCIONA Energy announced plans to complete two wind farms by year-end. The combined cost for the two projects is $495 million dollars, and the projects will include a large number of wind turbines manufactured in the United States at ACCIONA Windpower's plant in Iowa.
The Red Hills project is in western Oklahoma and includes 82 of ACCIONA's AW-1500 wind turbines. The wind farm electric generating capacity will be 123 MW, and the project is estimated to cost $267 million. Thirty-four of the 1.5-MW turbines will be produced at the new manufacturing facility in West Branch, Iowa, with the remainder manufactured at ACCIONA's plant in Spain.
The EcoGrove I wind farm is located in Stephenson County, Illinois and includes 67 AW-1500 wind turbines. The wind farm electric generating capacity will be 100.5 MW, and the project is estimated to cost $228 million. This wind farm will be the first project built by ACCIONA using the project portfolio acquired from EcoEnergy last year.
