Xcel Energy has placed the first V120-2.0MW order in North America for the 138MW Foxtail wind project in North Dakota. Turbine delivery will begin in the second quarter of 2019.
Including previously purchased 2 MW PTC components, the Foxtail wind project will be 150MW upon completion and is part of Xcel Energy's proposed multi-state wind expansion to add 3,680MW of new wind generation to its system, across 12 projects located in seven states across its territory. This expansion will increase Xcel Energy's wind capacity to more than 10,000 MW by the end of 2021.
