While discussions on solar farms, natural gas lines and other energy possibilities have continued over the last couple of years, wind project proposals fizzled out after Mercer County officially adopted its current restrictive ordinance.
That changed with the start of October, however.
PRC Wind (Project Resource Corporation) is planning a wind project in Mercer and Oliver counties called 49 Wind, with an anticipated commercial operation date of the fourth quarter of 2030. The project “will produce about 400 megawatts of power” and “will consist of 70 to 115 turbines,” with the number dependent on “turbine model/size,” according to a flyer from the company.
