We use new, traditional and renewable sources to provide reliable, future-ready energy and meet growing demand. One of the safest and most cost-effective ways we generate energy is with wind.
We’re one of the top five largest utility owner-operators of regulated wind in the United States. We currently own and operate nearly 1,800 megawatts of wind energy resources, enough to power nearly 600,000 homes in our service area.
Generating wind energy benefits the community in additional ways.
It provides:
- Good-paying jobs.
- Annual payments to landowners who lease their land for wind projects.
- Tax incentives for communities to use for things like infrastructure improvements and local emergency response services.
