Installed capacity of 180-megawatts of renewable energy
Project overview
Wildcat Creek Wind Farm is located approximately 50 miles north of Dallas-Fort Worth in southwestern Cooke County, between the towns of Era and Muenster. The project is sited on land primarily used for ranching and agriculture. Wildcat Creek has strong support from local landowners and will have minimal impact on current land use.
Wildcat Creek Wind Farm yields significantly in the form of payments to landowners, local spending, and annual community investment. Wildcat Creek Wind Farm is also compatible with other land uses and provides a stable form of income to local landowners.
