Somerset Wind Farm

The Somerset Wind Farm is a wind farm in Somerset County, Pennsylvania with six GE 1.5 MW Wind Turbines that began commercial operation in October 2001. The wind farm has a combined total nameplate capacity of 9 MW, and produces about 25,000 megawatt-hours of electricity annually, which is roughly a 30% capacity factor. The wind farm was constructed by NextEra Energy Resources, based in Florida.

The wind farm is just one-half mile (.5 mi) south of the Pennsylvania Turnpike, which makes its 215 ft towers easily visible to turnpike travelers.
