AMARILLO, TX—EDF Renewable Energy of San Diego has completed the Spinning Spur II Wind Project near Amarillo, a project started more than a year ago.
The Dallas Business Journal says the project includes 87 1.85-megawatt wind turbines located 40 miles west of Amarillo. The 161-megawatt wind farm will produce enough electricity to power 60,000 homes.
The site says that Texas leads the country in installed wind capacity with 12,300 megawatts, enough clean electricity to power 3.3 million average homes.
The Spinning Spur wind farm generates power on behalf of utility Southwestern Public Service. EDF Renewable Energy built the project with funding from Google, and it will continue as co-owner and manager.
