EDF RE starts commercial operation of Kelly Creek wind farm in Illinois

The 188MW wind farm, just 100 kilometers south of Chicago, will supply 78,000 American households with clean energy.

EDF RE is also proud of Kelly Creek’s positive economic impact, generated through the use of wind turbine towers, blades and nacelles manufactured at Vestas’ Colorado facilities, the creation of approximately 100 construction jobs and 10 long-term, full-time operations jobs, long-term lease payments to landowners, and recurring tax payments to local municipalities," said Ryan Pfaff, Executive Vice President for Development at EDF RE.

The Kelly Creek wind farm consists of 92 Vestas V100 wind turbines and supplies 78,000 households with clean electricity. This corresponds to the avoidance of more than 474,000 tonnes of CO? emissions annually, which corresponds to greenhouse gas emissions of 100,000 cars.
