Southern Power, a subsidiary of Southern Co., bought a
118-megawatt wind-energy project in Oklahoma, the company said
Tuesday.
Southern bought the Glass Sands facility located in Murray
County, Okla., from Steelhead Americas. Steelhead is a North
American subsidiary of Denmark's Vestas Wind Systems A/S.
Construction of the facility, which will include 28 wind
turbines, is underway, and commercial operations are set to begin
in the fourth quarter of 2021. The electricity and associated
renewable-energy credits that the facility will generate will be
sold under a power-purchase agreement with Amazon.com Inc.,
Southern said.
Glass Sands will be Southern's 15th wind-energy project, the
company said.
