Transcript of Wind Power – Various Levels
Wind Power – Various Levels
Small (10 kW)• Homes• Farms• Remote Application
Intermediate (10-250 kW)• Village Power
• Hybrid Systems
• Distributed Power
Large (660 kW - 2+MW)• Central Station Wind Farms
• Distributed Power
• Community Wind
Global Wind Resource
US Wind Resource
• Industry continues to grow – though challenged
• 2011 installations brought cumulative installed capacity in US to 46,916 MW– US no longer world leader in
installed capacity• 1,695 MW installed in 1st Q 2012
– 788 total turbines with average rated capacity of 2.15MW, 11 different turbine manufacturers
• 8,900 MW is under construction– Some of this will slip to 2013– 4th Q usually strongest as projects
come online by end of year– Rush to meet PTC deadline

State Policy
State Policy• Majority of national leaders in wind development attained it
with progressive policies• Renewable Energy Portfolio standards
• Oklahoma home to a Renewable Energy Goal• 15% renewable energy by 2015• Energy efficiency included as a component towards goal
Oklahoma’s Wind Statistics• Oklahoma boasts 8th best wind resource in nation
• Twice wind resource potential per square mile of Texas• Conservative estimates show potential of 13,000 MW of
installations• Estimates as high as 40,000 MW of potential
• Home to 20 operational wind projects for total of 2,321 MW• 1,265 turbines across 8 different manufacturers• 5 projects currently under construction for 871 MW• Projected to be 15% of in state generation by end of 2012
Oklahoma Wind Projects
Oklahoma’s Future in Wind• DOE 20% Report shows OK projected to be
home to 38,000 MW of wind power• More likely case closer to 10,000 MW –
15,000 MW• Large growth will mean exporting OK wind
power across state lines• Chisholm View going to Alabama Power Company
• Long haul DC Transmission line• Would carry 7,000 MW to TN
Economic Development• General estimates are $1.5 million/MW installed• National Renewable Energy Lab (NREL) created a Jobs and
Economic Development Impacts model (JEDI)• Takes generalized industry estimates for jobs, landowner lease payments and
construction and operational impacts• Users can use industry estimates or customize with actual local data
• JEDI estimates for current Oklahoma wind projects• ~$1 billion for operational expenses• ~$4 billion in total project capital investment
• Some actual estimates from Keenan II wind farm• Sharon/Mutual school district - $579,227• Fargo School District - $288,827• Career Tech - $227,601• County General - $189,849• EMS: $56,991• County Health - $19,058• 4 mill school - $75,867
