Cape Wind signed a 15-year PPA with NSTAR in 2010 covering 27% of the project’s 468MW nameplate capacity for 18.7 cents per kWh, with a 3.5% annual adjustment. The Massachusetts Department of Public Utilities (DPU) approved the deal in November 2012.
In a May ruling, Judge Richard Stearns of the US District Court, District of Massachusetts, rejected all claims against Cape Wind, NSTAR and the state brought by the Alliance, the Town of Barnstable and various businesses.
