據(jù)全球能源新聞網(wǎng)8月5日?qǐng)?bào)道，世界海上風(fēng)電巨頭?rsted已經(jīng)完成了位于德克薩斯州Wilbarger和Baylor縣的367兆瓦的西部Trail風(fēng)電場(chǎng)，這是其迄今為止最大的陸上風(fēng)電項(xiàng)目，使?rsted的陸上風(fēng)電、太陽(yáng)能和電池存儲(chǔ)總?cè)萘砍^(guò)2.8吉瓦。

　　該項(xiàng)目已與百事公司(PepsiCo )、荷美爾食品公司(Hormel Foods )和紐柯公司(Nucor)簽署了該項(xiàng)目大部分電力的長(zhǎng)期電力購(gòu)買協(xié)議。百事公司和荷美爾食品公司也將從西南電力池(SPP)的Haystack風(fēng)電項(xiàng)目購(gòu)買電力，該項(xiàng)目將于今年晚些時(shí)候上線。

　　?rsted陸上公司高級(jí)副總裁Philip Moore表示，Western Trail Wind 是一個(gè)選址良好的綠地開(kāi)發(fā)項(xiàng)目，將為德克薩斯電網(wǎng)提供低成本、可靠的電力。我為我們團(tuán)隊(duì)在這個(gè)項(xiàng)目上的工作感到非常自豪，因?yàn)槲覀兝^續(xù)擴(kuò)大業(yè)務(wù)，并在美國(guó)能源轉(zhuǎn)型中發(fā)揮領(lǐng)導(dǎo)作用。

　　西部Trail將以增加各縣和三個(gè)獨(dú)立區(qū)域的財(cái)產(chǎn)稅的形式提供長(zhǎng)期財(cái)政回報(bào)。

　　?rsted提供西部Trail Wind與領(lǐng)先的稅務(wù)股權(quán)供應(yīng)商、設(shè)備供應(yīng)商和建筑公司長(zhǎng)期合作。所有這些都有助于該項(xiàng)目的順利完成。

　　ORSTED COMPLETES ITS LARGEST onSHORE WIND PROJECT TO DATE IN TEXAS

　　?rsted has completed the 367 MW Western Trail Wind Farm located in Wilbarger and Baylor counties, Texas – its largest onshore wind project to date that brings ?rsted’s total onshore capacity to over 2.8 GW of wind, solar, and battery storage in operation.

　　The project has secured long-term power purchase agreements with PepsiCo, Hormel Foods, and Nucor for the majority of the power generated from the project. Both PepsiCo and Hormel Foods will also purchase power from the Haystack Wind project in SPP (Southwest Power Pool), due online later this year.

　　“Western Trail Wind is a well-sited greenfield development project that will provide low-cost, reliable power to the Texas grid,” said Philip Moore, Senior Vice President of ?rsted Onshore. “I’m very proud of our team working on this project as we continue to scale the business and play a leading role in the US energy transition.”

　　The project is situated on proporty owned by Stan Kroenke. Daniel Zyvoloski, Land Manager for Kroenke Ranches, says: “The Waggoner Ranch has a rich history for developing energy resources. We’re excited to partner with ?rsted on the Western Trail Wind Farm to make renewable energy a part of our ranching operation.”

　　Western Trail will provide long-term financial returns in the form of increased property tax to the counties and three independent school districts.

　　?rsted delivered Western Trail Wind working with long-standing relationships with leading tax equity providers, equipment suppliers, and construction companies. All were instrumental to the smooth completion of the project.
