The Dry Lake Wind Power Project in Navajo County is the first utility-scale wind farm in the U.S. state of Arizona. Starting in 2009, it was constructed in two phases having a total generating capacity of 128.1 megawatts (MW), and is selling the electricity to the Salt River Power District (SRP).
Dry Lake Wind Power Project in Navajo County is Arizona's first utility-scale wind farm. Phase 1 consists of 30 Suzlon 2.1 MW wind turbines, for a total nameplate capacity of 63 MW. [2] [3] Iberdrola Renewables built the wind farm in 2009 for $100 million, [2] and sells the output to Salt River Project. Chevelon Butte phase 1.

The Sherbino Mesa Wind Farm is located in Pecos County in west Texas. The first 150 megawatts (MW) of the project, which has a potential capacity of 750 MW, is in operation. Phase I utilizes 50 Vestas V-90 Mk.5 wind turbine generators, each with a rated capacity of 3 MW. BP will operate phase I of the project. [1]
2023-2024: Mesa Repower and Alta Mesa Repower combined to replace 620 aging wind turbine in the hills west of the Whitewater River with thirteen new ones. [ 22 ] [ 23 ] All of these 2020-era repowering efforts installed Vestas V112 or V117 wind turbines, producing between 3.0 and 4.3 MW, the largest blade reaching 492 feet above the ground.
The total cost of the project was estimated at $8–10 billion. By way of comparison, as of May 2008, the largest wind plant in the United States was the Horse Hollow Wind Energy Center, with a capacity of 736 MW. On March 2, 2009, Mesa announced that it was proceeding with the first phase of the project, but had put off work on the later ...
As of 2017, Wyoming remained heavily dependent on the coal industry, from which derived 40% of U.S. coal. [10] With public support, the state government eliminated its sales-and-use tax exemption for utility-scale renewable-energy equipment in 2009 and imposed a $1 per megawatt-hour tax on wind power in 2010.
