Avangrid Renewables has agreed a power purchase agreement with Dairyland Power Cooperative for electricity from the 160MW Barton wind farm in Iowa.
Under the terms of the deal, Dairyland, which provides wholesale electricity to 24 members and 17 municipal utilities, will buy 80MW of power from the project.
Dairyland said the agreement is the result of its participation in the National Renewable Cooperative Organization (NRCO).
Dairyland vice president of strategic planning John Carr said: “The strategic alliance with NRCO brings opportunities to all cooperative members through joint support of renewable energy projects.”
