EDF Renewable Energy has acquired Roosevelt Wind Project, LLC from Infinity Wind Power. The up to 300 MW project is expected to achieve commercial operation in December 2015.
The project encompasses approximately 62,000 acres of farmland within Roosevelt County, New Mexico—roughly 18 miles southwest of Portales. Southwestern Public Service Company (SPS), a subsidiary of Xcel Energy, will purchase the electricity generated by the 250 MW first phase of the project, pursuant to a 20-year, fixed-price power purchase agreement.
