Italian energy group Enel, through its renewable energy subsidiary Enel Green Power North America (EGPNA), has launched the construction of its 300 MW Rock Creek wind project in Atchison County, Missouri (United States).
The US$500m project is expected to be commissioned by the end of 2017 and to generate 1.25 TWh/year. Power generation and renewable energy credits will be sold under two separate bundled, long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs) with Kansas City Power & Light (KCP&L) and KCP&L Greater Missouri Operations Company (GMO).
Rock Creek is one of six Enel renewable projects currently under construction in the United States, together with the 108 MW Drift Sand wind park in Oklahoma, the 400 MW Cimarron Bend wind project in Kansas, the 150 MW Aurora solar power project in Minnesota, the 150 MW Lindahl wind project in North Dakota and the 65 MW Chisholm View II wind project in Oklahoma.
