GE Vernova turbines arrive at Montana wind site

GE Vernova has begun delivering 2.8 MW 127 m turbines for a 248 MW wind project at Puget Sound Energy’s (PSE) Beaver Creek wind farm in Stillwater County, Montana, USA.

The Beaver Creek Wind Project is set to feature 88 of GE Vernova’s 2.8 MW-127m wind turbines, with an initial capacity of 248 MW, sufficient to power around 83,000 homes annually. It will connect to NorthWestern Energy’s system, using existing PSE transmission lines to supply PSE customers. Construction will employ 150-200 skilled workers, with 10-15 permanent on-site jobs during operation. Turbine deliveries began in May 2024, following the project’s booking in late 2023.
