[ 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 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).
This is a list of the onshore wind farms that are larger than 250 MW in current nameplate capacity. Many of these wind farms have been built in stages, and construction of a further stage may be continuing at some of these sites. The Gansu Wind Farm in China is the largest wind farm in the world, with a target capacity of 20,000 MW by 2020.
