Wind Capital Group has broken ground on a wind farm loacted at Lost Creek Wind Farm in northwest Missouri. This wind farm is the first of its kind in Missouri.
Developers expect the 100 wind turbines to produce 150 megawatts of electricity that will provide 50,000 homes with power.
“We hope that with this earlier construction start date we can complete Lost Creek ahead of our initial projections. This will bring more clean, renewable energy to northwest Missouri even quicker,” Dean Baumgardner, Wind Capital executive vice president said in a statement.
The power will be sent through transmission feed lines that will be located on the site. The power will be sold to Associated Cooperative for the NW Electric Cooperative.
The project is expected to cost $300 million and will be done by Spring 2010.
