Duke Energy Renewables, a commercial business unit of Duke Energy, has announced it will build, own and operate the 200MW Mesteño wind project in Starr County, Texas, USA.
The project’s output will be sold into the ERCOT market and Duke Energy Renewables will enter into a long-term hedge agreement covering the majority of the expected wind energy production. Construction has begun and will be completed by the end of 2019. Vestas supplied 56 3.6MW turbines for the site. Amshore US Wind provided development support for the project, and Wanzek Construction is the contractor.
