Installed capacity of 201-megawatts of renewable energy
Project overview
Meridian Way Wind Farm consists of two phases and is located on the windy plains of north central Kansas in Cloud County, eight miles south of Concordia. The project complements the area’s mixed agricultural landscape, providing local farmers with a stable, weather-resistant cash crop in the form of landowner lease payments.
Meridian Way Wind Farm yields significantly in the form of payments to landowners, local spending, and annual community investment. Meridian Way Wind Farm is also compatible with other land uses and provides a stable form of income to local landowners.
