BayWa r.e. Wind acquires 19.8 MW Broadview Wind Project

By Paul Dvorak | September 16, 2013

BayWa r.e. Wind, LLC says it has entered into a purchase and sale agreement with community-wind developer, National Renewable Solutions, to acquire the development assets for the Broadview Wind Project in New Mexico. The 19.8-MW project, comprising 3,600 acres in Curry County, south of the City of Grady, will sell the energy via 20-year fixed price contract. Consisting of twelve 1.65 MW V82 Vestas turbines, the project will start construction in the fourth quarter of 2013.

In accordance with BayWa r.e.’s custom of naming projects after well-known composers, the project has been named Brahms Wind, LLC after German composer Johannes Brahms.
