Under the terms of a deal announced in January this year, the US Army through the Defense Logistics Agency will acquire the 50.4MW Cotton Plains wind facility and the 15.4MWAC Phantom Solar plant in a bid to provide electricity to Fort Hood.
Apex's president Mark Goodwin said: “Apex is proud to help the largest active-duty armoured post in the US Fort Hood increase its energy resiliency and help accelerate our nation’s overall shift to clean energy.”
The 151.2MW Old Settler wind facility will have the capacity to produce enough clean electricity to power 51,000 average US households.
