RWE partners with General Electric for Panther Creek III onshore wind farm repowering
RWE Renewables has partnered with GE Renewable Energy to repower its Panther Creek III onshore wind farm in West Texas, US.
The repowering of Panther Creek III includes the replacement of a significant portion of the wind turbine components, including the installation of longer blades and upgrading existing gearboxes. The refurbishment effectively increases the annual production for all 133 wind turbine generators (WTGs) on the site, having a total installed capacity of 215 megawatts (MW).
The installation and commissioning of the project are expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2021. Panther Creek III came online in August 2009 and was the last of a three-phase project in West Texas located in Sterling, Howard, and Glasscock counties.
