Why Not Ohio? Oklahoma Wind Project Up and Running
CPV Renewable Energy Co., an affiliate of Competitive Power Ventures Inc., completed the 152 MW Keenan II wind farm in Oklahoma and the project is now in operations.

The project is the second phase of a multi-phased wind generation project with a total build-out potential of more than 350 MW.

The Keenan II project has secured a 20-year power purchase agreement with Oklahoma Gas & Electric and uses 66 Siemens 2.3 MW wind turbines.

The wind farm is co-owned by GE Energy Financial Services and Tyr Keenan II LLC, a unit of Itochu Corp.

The earlier 101 MW Keenan I wind farm was developed and sold to OG&E in 2008.

Every week we see another state's wind project come on line. Why not Ohio?
