LCG, March 8, 2012--Iberdrola completed construction of its 304-MW Blue Creek Wind Farm in Ohio. Iberdrola executed a 20-year, power purchase agreement (PPA) with the US firm FirstEnergy Solutions, a subsidiary of FirstEnergy Corp., for 100 MWs of the total output of the project back in February 2011. With the new project, Iberdrola states that its installed capacity in the U.S. now exceeds 5,200 MW.
The Blue Creek Wind Project includes 152 Gamesa G90 wind turbines that stand 100 meters above the earth's surface. Each turbine has a capacity of 2 MW.
