GE Renewable Energy today announced a trio of orders for its 2.X onshore wind turbines with Invenergy. The 576 MW, 187-turbine order will power the equivalent of 160,000 American homes across three U.S. states.

The agreement includes:

• 54 2.X-127 turbines for the 110 MW Crescent Wind Energy Center in Michigan

All three projects are scheduled to be operational by the first quarter of 2021 or earlier.
