Alabama Set for Wind Energy from Oklahoma, Kansas
February 27, 2013
Alabama Power is now receiving energy from the
Oklahoma-based Chisholm View Wind Project as part of a 2011 power purchase
agreement. A similar agreement was approved in September, 2012, with the Buffalo Dunes
Wind Project near Garden City, Kansas. By 2014, the two projects will produce
up to 404 megawatts from wind which is enough to power the equivalent of
115,000 homes. See the Alabama
Power press release.
