Clearway announces a new set of long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs) with PacifiCorp, a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway.

A power of 432MW

Clearway states that the APPs will directly support the construction of two wind energy projects. The first project, called Two Rivers, located in Wyoming, will have a capacity of 280MW. The second wind project, Cedar Creek, located in Idaho, will have 152MW.

The partnership between Clearway and PacifiCorp will help develop wind energy in these two central U.S. states. In addition, the company announces that the two wind projects have a PPA covering a period of 25 years. Valerie Wooley, Vice President at Clearway says:

“We are proud to partner with PacifiCorp again and help them achieve their goal of sourcing the cleanest, lowest risk, lowest cost electricity for their customers.”

Substantial investments

The Two Rivers Wind Project in Carbon and Albany counties will produce enough electricity to power 100,000 homes annually. The wind farm, initially developed by Intermountain Wind, is expected to create over 275 jobs during construction. In addition, it represents a $500 million investment in the Wyoming economy.

Clearway was acquiring the Cedar Creek wind project in 2021 from rPlus Energies. Located in Bingham County, the project will generate enough electricity to power 41,000 homes annually. Cedar Creek Wind will create more than 175 jobs during construction for a $250 million investment in Idaho’s economy.

A federal presence

Clearway seeks to develop the transition to a world powered by clean energy. The company currently operates over 8GW of renewable and conventional energy assets across the United States. The company announced that it has 5.7GW of wind, solar and energy storage assets.

The company announced that it is offsetting the equivalent of more than 10.5 million tons of carbon emissions. For its part, PacifiCorp serves two million customers in various states such asUtah, California and Oregon. Finally, the partnership between the two companies includes a solar and wind portfolio of 549MW in Utah and 141MW in Wyoming.
