LCG, October 23, 2025--Google announced today a first-of-its kind agreement to support a natural gas-fired power plant with carbon capture and storage (CCS). The 400-MW Broadwing Energy power project, located in Decatur, Illinois, will capture and permanently store its carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. By agreeing to buy most of the power it generates, Google is helping get this new, baseload power source built and connected to the regional grid that supports our data centers.

Enel Starts Construction on 400-MW Wind Project in Kansas
LCG, April 14, 2016--Enel Green Power North America, Inc. (EGPNA) recently announced that it has started construction of the Cimarron Bend wind farm, a 400-MW project located in Clark County, Kansas. The project, which will require an investment of approximately $610 million, is expected to commence operations by 2017.
The power generated from the Cimarron Bend wind farm, together with the renewable energy credits associated with the project, will be sold to Google and to the Kansas City Board of Public Utilities under two 200-MW long-term power purchase agreements (PPA's).
The Head of Enel's Global Renewable Energies Division stated, "This project marks a major milestone for Enel, as not only will Cimarron Bend be the largest asset in our portfolio, but it also opens our renewable energy to new partners and uses. As we continue to invest and grow in the US we aim to cooperate with companies and partners that share the same vision for a more sustainable future."
Enel is actively developing a number of wind projects in the Midwest. Last December, its 200-MW Goodwell Wind Project, located in the panhandle of Oklahoma, achieved commercial operations. The electricity generated by the wind farm is under a 20-year PPA with Public Service Company of Oklahoma (PSO), a subsidiary of American Electric Power (AEP). The construction of the Goodwell Wind Project required a total investment of approximately $310 million.
