Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--EDF Renewable Energy's (San Diego, California) Longhorn Windfarm in Texas is now providing power on a commercial basis, according to the company.
Located on 33,000 acres in Floyd and Briscoe counties, the 200-megawatt (MW) windfarm began producing power May 1. Renewable Energy Systems (Broomfield, Colorado), part of RES Group (Kings Langley, England), developed and built the project. A long-term, fixed-price energy purchase agreement is in place.

Longhorn Windfarm has 100 Vestas V-100 wind turbines that rate 2 MW each. Vestas will provide operations and maintenance under a five-year warranty agreement. The project has a total investment value of $220 million.
EDF Renewables provides services ranging from site selection and development to long-term operations and maintenance servicing. The company has more than nine gigawatts of energy under contract.
