1,050 MW Western Spirit wind project in New Mexico nears completion
Pattern Energy nearly completes a wind project in east-central New Mexico that, once fully operational in December, will constitute the largest single-phase renewable energy build-out in US history.
The company broke ground last December 2020 on its Western Spirit project, which includes four wind farms with 1,050 megawatts of joint generating capacity, plus a new, 155-mile transmission line that will carry the electricity from New Mexico’s gusty eastern plains to California markets.
