- Final investment decision for 242MW Scioto Ridge wind farm
- Turbine supply contract signed with Siemens Gamesa
- Full construction start planned for Q2 2019
Energy company innogy SE paves the way for its first US onshore wind project: At the end of November 2018, innogy took the final investment decision for the construction of the Scioto Ridge wind farm, a 242MW project in Hardin and Logan Counties, Ohio. In preparation for construction, the contract for the supply of wind turbines has now been signed. Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy will supply 72 wind turbines: 63 x SG 3.4-132 and 9 x SG 2.6-114. The order includes a 10-year service and maintenance agreement with Siemens Gamesa. The total investment in the project will be more than $300 million.
In July 2018, innogy acquired the EverPower Wind Holdings’ US onshore wind development business from UK private equity investor Terra Firma Capital Partners. This acquisition included a development pipeline of more than 2,000 MW of wind projects.
