(1) Phase I was the first phase where
Platte River added turbines to the site. Phase I included two,
V42-600 turbines constructed in April 1998. Each turbine generates
600 kW of energy.
(2) Phases II - III of
Platte River's additions to its Medicine Bow Wind
Project site. These Vestas-American V47-660 wind
turbines were constructed in October/November 1999 and 2000.
Each one generates 660 kW of energy.
(3) Meteorological
tower that was installed as part of
the original site in the early 1980s. The tower is now
utilized by Platte River for data gathering at
the site.
Wind site tours are
scheduled by request during June, July and August only.
