RWE and Indiana Michigan Power Company Sign Long-term PPA for 200 MW Wind Project
LCG, December 18, 2025--RWE and Indiana Michigan Power Company (I&M), an American Electric Power (AEP) company, today announced their partnering to provide new wind power generation capacity online to meet Indiana’s growing electricity demand. The companies signed a 15-year power purchase agreement (PPA) for the total output from RWE’s 200 MW Prairie Creek wind project in Blackford County, Indiana. I&M will purchase electricity from the wind project, which will further diversify its portfolio and be consistent with its all-of-the-above strategy to secure generation for its rapidly growing electricity demand.
I&M's President and Chief Operating Officer stated, "By diversifying our generation mix, I&M is able to provide safe and reliable service to our customers and continue making a significant impact on the communities we serve. The addition of diverse, affordable energy resources is an important step in being Future Ready to serve customers’ homes, businesses and factories now and the years to come."
Onsite construction has commenced at Prairie Creek, with operations scheduled to begin in 2028. The wind farm will include up to 51 turbines. RWE's project design is intended to utilize less than 1.5 acres per turbine and to minimize impacts to wildlife. The construction phase is expected to deliver substantial direct and indirect economic benefits to Blackford County, including the employment of approximately 240 workers onsite at peak construction. In addition, the project’s participating farmer-landowners will receive additional income from property lease payments.
RWE Clean Energy's Chief Commercial Officer said, "RWE is proud to support Indiana’s all-of-the-above energy strategy with our portfolio of generation assets. Projects like Prairie Creek help bring needed power to the grid while also supporting new investment and job creation in the Hoosier State. Our investment in Prairie Creek will deliver lasting benefits to Blackford County through economic development payments and long-term tax revenue funding for schools, roads, first responders and other essential services, while providing a stable source of income for local multigenerational farming families."
