And they will have a MAGA component Made in Murica........
The Wind Catcher project will have 800 2.5-MW turbines supplied by GE, which noted it would manufacture all of the turbine machine heads and hubs domestically. Other system components also will be manufactured in the U.S.
Construction of the wind farm has been under development since last year, and it is expected to be fully operational in mid-2020.
According to a GE announcement, up to 1.1 million customers in Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Texas would be supplied with electricity generated by the wind farm. Invenergy is contracted to operate Wind Catcher for the first five years.
In addition to supplying the turbines, GE Renewable Energy will provide software to support the wind-power
operations, including Asset Performance Management (APM) and Operations Optimization (OO).
The value of the wind farm project has not been specified by GE or Invenergy, but the larger development — the Wind Catcher Energy Connection — is forecast at $4.5 billion.
In addition to hundreds of towers and turbines, the Wind Catcher Energy Connection development will include an approximately 350-mile long, dedicated, extra-high voltage power line. As currently conceived, two utilities (Public Service Co. of Oklahoma and Southwestern Electric Power Co., both American Electric Power subsidiaries) will buy the Wind Catcher wind farm from Invenergy and then to build the power line to serve PSO and SWEPCO customers.
