Located on 17,000 acres approximately 50 miles south of Wichita, Kansas, in Sumner County, the Slate Creek wind project will comprise 75 Vestas 2.0MW wind turbines.
The project is slated to commence commercial operations by the end of 2015 while the construction is likely to begin in late 2014.
EDF Renewable Energy central region development director Kate O’Hair said the project will add cleaner, more renewable energy to the region.
"We look forward to once again delivering a successful and strong wind energy project to a utility partner from the Great Plains family; continuing to build on this long-term relationship of trust and confidence in EDF RE’s ability to deliver and maintain quality wind projects that allow Great Plains to diversify its generation portfolio with sustainable wind energy," O’Hair added.
