DODGE COUNTY WIND FARM
About the Project
The Dodge County Wind Farm is an innovative wind project proposed for Dodge and Steele Counties in Minnesota that will have a capacity of up to 260 megawatts of clean, renewable energy. The Dodge County Wind project is more than wind turbines - it represents a significant capital investment in Minnesota. Once operational, it will create good-paying jobs and provide millions in additional revenue for landowners and the local community.
A subsidiary of NextEra Energy Resources, LLC, the world’s largest generator of renewable energy from the wind and the sun.
