As of March of 2024, Indiana had a total of 2,743 MW of wind power capacity installed, ranking it 12th among U.S. states. [1] Wind power was responsible for 4.8% of in-state electricity production in 2016. [2] The main utility-scale development up to 2016 has been in the northwest part of the state in Benton, White, and Jasper Counties.
The following table of wind farms and utility-scale wind power developments uses data from the AWEA, [33] the State of Indiana, [34] and other sources. For the larger projects constructed in phases, the table lists separate information for each phase. The name of each wind farm is the name used by the energy company when referring to the farm.

The Fowler Ridge Wind Farm is a wind farm in Benton County, Indiana, near the city of Fowler, IN about 30 miles (48 km) northwest of Lafayette and 90 miles (140 km) northwest of Indianapolis. [1] Fowler Ridge was originally developed in 2005 and 2006 by Orion Energy, LLC (Oakland, CA) and Vision Energy, LLC (Cincinnati, OH) and later sold in ...

Phase I spreads over 26,000 acres (110 km 2) a ten by six mile area since large wind turbines must be spaced at least 5 to 10 rotor diameters apart to avoid wind shadowing. Most of the land between turbines remains productive farmland; only about 250 acres (1.0 km 2) of farmland have been taken out of production by the 121 turbines. [1]
A high level wiring diagram for an off-grid hybrid wind/PV system. The generators for small wind turbines are usually three-phase alternating current generators and the trend is to use the induction type, although some models utilize single-phase generators or direct current output. [18] [19]
