Ørsted to develop 184 MW wind farm in Texas
Ørsted has announced that Lincoln Clean Energy (LCE) will soon start building its first project under new Ørsted ownership – the Locket Wind project in Texas.
Lockett Wind has a capacity of 184 MW. The project will expectedly reach commercial operations in the second half of 2019 and will generate over 750,000 MWh of renewable energy per year, or enough to power the equivalent of 72,000 U.S. homes.
The wind farm will be LCE’s fourth onshore wind farm in operation after Amazon Windfarm, Willow Springs Wind and Tahoka. The latter is expected to be fully operational by late 2018. With Lockett Wind, the company's portfolio will reach about 1,000 MW in 2019.
LCE was acquired in October.
