Status of wind farm project up in the air

WRMJ | May 17, 2013 | wrmj.com

The status of a wind farm project is now up in the air in Mercer County. BP Wind Energy was proposing a 100 wind turbine project south of Aledo, involving several counties. But the Houston based company is selling its wind business, including 16 operating wind farms in nine states plus projects in various stages of development, according to “Bloomberg.com”. The last time WRMJ talked with local project spokesman Roger Brown was in 2012, when they were hopeful for 2013 construction, but that won’t happen now with BP getting out of the wind business.
