EDF Renewable Energy (formerly enXco) says the 161 MW Spinning Spur Wind Project, located approximately 30 miles west of Amarillo, Texas, is now operational and supplying electricity to the regional transmission grid.
The project, which comprises 70 Siemens 2.3 MW turbines, will deliver power to Southwestern Public Service Co., a wholly owned subsidiary of Xcel Energy, under a 15-year power purchase agreement. EDF Renewable Services (formerly enXco Service Corp.) will service the balance-of-plant during the turbine warranty period.
