The company was also responsible for engineering, procurement, and construction of the new 34.5kV collection system and upgrade of the 115kV interconnection substation, as well as the construction of access roads, foundations, and turbine erection, said RMT.
The facility was decommissioned during the turbine replacement. It was restarted for commercial operations in September 2008, and now generates enough electricity to power approximately 6,000 homes.
Frank Greb, vice president and general manager of RMT’s WindConnect group, said: “With over 3,100MW of wind energy under our belts, our staff has the experience and know-how to keep projects on schedule.”
RMT creates energy and environmental services that balance clients’ business and sustainability goals. Headquartered in Madison, Wisconsin, the company has offices throughout the US, UK, and France. RMT’s WindConnect team has provided construction, engineering, design, and development services for over 3,100 MW of wind energy across the U.S, claims the company. RMT is a unit of Alliant Energy Corporation, an energy
holding company.
