105 MW wind project to supply car factories in the US Midwest starts operations

CMS Energy has held an opening ceremony for the 105 MW Northwest Ohio Wind project, located in Paulding County, Ohio, in the Midwestern region of the USA.

The wind farm is expected to generate about 320,000 MWh of renewable energy per year – enough to power more than 30,000 Ohio homes.

Renewable energy credits from the project are committed to General Motors as part of a 15-year renewable energy purchase agreement. Northwest Ohio Wind will help offset carbon emissions from seven Midwestern General Motors vehicle manufacturing plants. 

Construction of the Northwest Ohio Wind project was executed through select contractors, including General Electric and White Construction, and was completed in August.
