SKELETON CREEK PROJECT
About the Project
Skeleton Creek is an innovative project that combines wind energy, solar energy and battery energy storage - all in the same location - making more renewable energy available to customers for more hours of the day, even when the sun is not shining and the wind is not blowing. It’s located in Major, Alfalfa and Garfield Counties, Oklahoma, and has the capacity to generate up to 250 megawatts of wind energy and 250 megawatts of solar energy, paired with a 200 megawatt, 4-hour battery energy storage system. Skeleton Creek will continue to create good-paying jobs and millions in additional revenue for landowners and the local community - for many years to come.
It is a subsidiary of NextEra Energy Resources, LLC, the world’s largest generator of renewable energy from the wind and the sun.
