A third large wind power project has won a purchase agreement from Nebraska Public Power District, opening the way to building a wind turbine farm near Broken Bow, Neb., to generate electricity by the end of 2012.
NPPD said it signed a 20-year agreement to purchase power from the wind farm, which could generate up to 80 megawatts of electricity. The agreement is with Midwest Wind Energy LLC and Edison Mission Group, both from Chicago, and Edison's local affiliate, Broken Bow Wind LLC, which will own and operate the facility.
