Centennial Wind Farm— 120 MW Wind
Centennial Wind Farm is a 120 MW wind power plant located in the United States, operated by Oklahoma Gas & Electric Co since its commissioning in 2007. The facility generates electricity from wind turbines, contributing to the renewable energy sector. It ranks as the 353rd largest wind plant in the United States. With 120 MW, it represents 0.11% of the country's total wind capacity of 105,842 MW. The United States has 1,142 wind plants with a combined capacity of 105,842 MW. Compared to the largest wind plant, Alta Wind VIII at 1,547 MW, Centennial Wind Farm is approximately 0.08 times the size. Wind energy is a growing component of the United States energy mix, providing about 8% of the total electricity generation. The country's vast open spaces, particularly in the Midwest, are ideal for wind energy development. Centennial Wind Farm is situated approximately 160 km northwest of Oklahoma City in Oklahoma.
