Wyoming's geography of high-altitude prairies with broad ridges makes the state an ideal site for the development of wind resources. Other factors that positively affect Wyoming's wind power development potential include transmission capabilities, [5] the high energy needs of nearby population centers, [5] high public support of wind power development in the state (97% support), [6] and the ...
TB Flats I & II Wind Farm is a 301.1-megawatt onshore wind farm located in Carbon County and Albany County, Wyoming, United States. [3] The project was developed by Invenergy and later transferred to PacifiCorp as part of their Energy Vision 2020 initiative.
Wind resource map of Wyoming at 50 m (164 ft) above ground. The wind farm will be located within an isolated patch of "outstanding" wind energy potential at the center-bottom of the state. The project is proposed to generate 2,000 to 3,000 megawatts (MW) of electricity and construction may take 3–4 years with a project life estimate of 30 years.
