The wind power project was initiated in 2008 when Way Wind began securing land rights and performing wind studies.
The company sought a partnership with Nordex to advance the project and increase the chances of success, and the partnership also allowed the project’s planned size to expand from 99MW to 120MW.
Nordex will supply 48 units of the Nordex N100/2500 turbine from its recently completed production facility in Jonesboro, Arkansas, US.
This 2.5MW wind turbine is a utility scale product known for its high yields.
The companies said the partnership has now moved forward with additional wind studies and will soon begin environmental and other surveys to support an upcoming application for approval for the project from the Nebraska Power Review Board.
