Avista signs PPA for Clearway Energy Group’s 144 MW wind project in US
Avista, through a request for proposal issued in June 2018, has been selected to purchase power generated by the proposed Rattlesnake Flat Wind project in Adams County, Washington.
Rattlesnake Flat Wind, a wind energy facility permitted and being developed by renewable energy developer Clearway Energy Group, will provide Avista with approximately 50 average megawatts of renewable energy, or as much as 144 megawatts of nameplate wind capacity, under a 20-year power purchase agreement with deliveries beginning in 2020.
The wind farm will be the largest renewable energy facility in Adams County with the capacity to generate enough clean, renewable energy to power about 37,600 of Avista’s customers’ homes. Situated on 20,000 privately owned acres near Lind, WA, Rattlesnake Flat will tie into Avista’s electric system via Avista’s Lind/Washtucna transmission line.
