Oklahoma Gas & Electric (OG&E) has partnered with Renewable Energy Systems Americas (RES Americas) on the Crossroads Wind Energy Project in Dewey County, Okla.
RES Americas has developed and will construct the wind energy project, which OG&E will own and operate.
The 227.5 MW project will consist of 95 Siemens 2.3 MW turbines and three Siemens 3.0 MW direct-drive turbines, the first of their kind in the United States.
Construction, which will bring up to 250 temporary jobs, is expected to begin in late 2010 with completion estimated in the second half of 2011.
