Cordelia Power announced the launch of four renewable energy projects and commissioned a 165 MW wind facility, reinforcing its presence in the US energy market. The company secured $1.3 billion in financing to ensure these projects progress within planned timelines.

The new projects span multiple states. Cordelia Power will develop Arkansas’s 135 MW Crossover wind project to harness local wind resources. Missouri will see the construction of Winfield, a 150 MW solar project, as part of the company’s solar energy expansion.

In Arizona, Cordelia Power teamed up with BrightNight to co-develop the 300 MW Box Canyon solar facility, with BrightNight owning 50% of the project. This partnership will combine expertise to optimise solar output. Meanwhile, the company will implement the McHenry project in Illinois, a 20 MW / 40 MWh battery energy storage system, emphasising its focus on advanced technology.

Cordelia Power brought the Moraine Sands project, a 165 MW wind farm in Mason County, Illinois, into commercial operation. This achievement demonstrates the company’s ability to execute large-scale renewable energy projects. It expects all new construction projects to be fully operational by mid-2025, contingent on long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs).

Investors showed strong confidence in Cordelia Power’s strategy by providing $1.3 billion in funding. The company engaged leading contractors like Mortenson, Blattner, Qcells, and Pepper Energy to deliver high-quality and timely project execution.

Looking ahead, Cordelia Power filed interconnection requests this year for over 6,000 MW of wind projects and 2,500 MW of storage projects across the MISO and Pacific Northwest power markets. The company’s expansion plan signals its ambition to contribute to the renewable energy transition and create business opportunities in local communities.

By moving forward with these projects, Cordelia Power continues strengthening its role in the renewable energy sector, driving sustainable development and advancing the energy transition across the US.
