Orsted AS said Wednesday that it has completed the 367 megawatt
Western Trail Wind Farm in Texas.
The 130-wind turbine project has secured long-term
power-purchase agreements with PepsiCo Inc., Hormel Foods Corp. and
Nucor Corp. for the majority of the power generated from the
project, the Danish renewable energy developer said.
The project, in Wilbarger and Baylor counties, is the company's
largest onshore wind project to date that brings its total onshore
capacity to over 2.8 gigawatts of wind, solar and battery storage
in operation.
PepsiCo and Hormel Foods will also purchase power from the
Haystack Wind project, due online later this year, it added.
