Sonoma Clean Power Adds Wind to Energy Sourcing

North Bay Business Journal | May 24, 2017

Sonoma Clean Power broke ground today on a project that will update an existing wind power facility and bring more wind power in-state.

The Golden Hills North Wind Facility, in the western central valley community of Tracy, will remove 283 30-year-old wind turbines and replace them with 20 2.3-megawatt GE turbines, capable of generating more power with twice the efficiency of the previous wind project.

Repowered wind facilities carry multiple benefits. One modern wind turbine replaces 21 of the old-style turbines, producing more energy. This is low-cost, clean electricity that will serve our customers of Sonoma and Mendocino counties.
