Cordelio Power acquired two wind projects under development in central Illinois, Glacier Sands and Moraine Sands, which are expected to achieve commercial operations in 2021 and 2022, with over 350 MW of nameplate capacity.
“We are pleased to start the next phase of our growth, and to be working with the Swift Current team,” said Nick Karambelas, Cordelio’s chief commercial officer. “These projects represent our opportunity to help Illinois meet its clean power goals while making a positive impact on Mason County and its local communities.”
The Glacier Sands project is under contract for a portion of its output for 14 years. The two projects were acquired from Swift Current Energy, who will work with Cordelio to advance the projects under a development services agreement.
“The Swift Current Energy team is excited to have Cordelio Power acquire these high impact wind projects,” said Matt Birchby, a partner at Swift Current. “We look forward to working closely with Cordelio on these projects to bring clean, home-grown energy, and the good jobs and economic opportunity that come with them, to Illinois.”
Swift Current was advised in this transaction by KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc.
