The $610m wind farm, due online in 2017, has two long-term PPAs for 200MW each, one with Google and the other with the Kansas City Board of Public Utilities.
The project is a “major milestone” for the company, says EGP head Francesco Venturini, noting that it’s the first time EGP has sold wind power to a corporate off-taker.
“As we continue to invest and grow in the US we aim to co-operate with companies and partners that share the same vision for a more sustainable future,” Venturini says.
