Bringing community-based wind energy to Goodhue County, Minnesota

Formed in October 2008, our company's objective is to develop 78 MW of wind turbine-based renewable energy. Our development commitment is to produce a wind energy project that is sustainable and environmentally responsible. One of our main goals is to provide landowners and other local investors an opportunity to financially participate in a wind project-and thereby enjoy the long term financial benefits. As a community-based wind project, we are also committed to ensuring the community at large benefits from the project through new jobs, tax revenues, and other indirect economic benefits.

We hope you will take advantage of the information and resources on this site to learn more about the Goodhue Wind project and the benefits of clean, safe, renewable energy.

Take a moment to look through our new Wind Fact Library section where we have compiled studies and videos that set the story straight on several wind energy issues.
