The Whispering Willow South wind project builds on our longstanding presence in Franklin County and unites a coalition of partnering landowners and community members committed to building a strong, resilient energy future. Wind plays a vital role in our all-of-the-above energy strategy to deliver safe, reliable, home-grown power to communities across the state. Franklin County is ideal for this wind project thanks to its abundant, high-quality wind conditions and valued community partnerships.

We own and operate three wind projects in Franklin County that generate enough energy to power over 160,000 homes. To date, these projects have contributed nearly $39 million in tax revenue to the county and over $17 million in lease payments to participating landowners. The Whispering Willow South wind project continues this legacy. It offers mutually beneficial partnerships with landowners and predictable, diverse income streams for rural families. This project will create new construction jobs and ongoing operation and maintenance positions once in service.
