The Santa Isabel Wind Project is a wind energy generation facility being developed by Pattern that will be located in Southern Puerto Rico in the Municipality of Santa Isabel.
The project is expected to begin producing electricity in late next year and will generate clean, renewable energy equivalent to the power needs of up to 25,000 Puerto Rican homes.
The Pattern Santa Isabel Wind Project will create a significant number of jobs during the construction phase, as well as a number of ongoing permanent positions once operational. Pattern will begin a public outreach program in conjunction with the start of the permitting process for the Santa Isabel Wind Project, the company said.
Mike Garland, CEO of Pattern Energy, said: “We are very excited to be working with the local communities, PREPA and residents of Puerto Rico to harness its ocean driven winds into clean and renewable energy.
“The Pattern Santa Isabel Wind Project will be a premier project that will harness the winds on the Southern side of Puerto Rico, which are consistent during the peak hours of energy consumption, making them a unique, local resource for the people of Puerto Rico.”
