Electric Transmission Texas filed on Sep. 25 at the Public Utility Commission of Texas a First Amended and Restated ERCOT Standard Generation Interconnection Agreement, dated Sept. 21, with Willow Springs Windfarm LLC.
ETT and the project developer originally entered into the agreement as of May 1, 2015. No specific commercial operation date is given in this agreement.
The developer’s Salvation Substation will be located in Haskell and Knox counties approximately 15 miles east of Haskell, Texas. Once the facilities are completed and energized, the Point of Interconnection will be located at the dead-end structure inside ETT’s Smoky Hill 345-kV Station that terminates the developer’s 345-kV transmission line from the substation.
This is a nominal 230-MW wind farm comprised of 100 General Electric turbines at 2.3 MW each.
