White Construction Inc. says it has started construction on Invenergy Wind's California Ridge Wind project, located in Illinois' Vermilion and Champaign counties.
The 200 MW wind farm will consist of 134 GE 1.6 -100 turbines, and will be White Construction's 10th project in Illinois. Mobilization started in late October, and the project is scheduled for completion in November.
White Construction will perform the construction of all access roads; make modifications to existing public roads; design and build all foundations and collection systems; and erect the wind turbines.
