Goodwell Wind Project LLC200 MW Wind

WindRenewableVerified: Jul 2026

The Goodwell Wind Project LLC, with a capacity of 200 MW, ranks as the 1382nd power generation facility in the United States. Commissioned in 2016, this wind facility marks a crucial step in diversifying the U.S. energy portfolio, particularly in a landscape where natural gas is the prevailing fuel source. Contributing a modest 0.01% to the nation’s total capacity of 1,386,385 MW, Goodwell's significance lies not just in its output but in its role within the local energy ecosystem. Situated in a wind-rich area, the project employs advanced turbine technology to optimize energy production. The nearby Great Plains Windpark LLC, with a capacity of 114 MW, and the KODE Novus I and II wind facilities, with capacities of 80 MW and 40 MW respectively, create a renewable energy cluster that enhances the grid's stability and reliability. Other nearby plants, including the Porterhouse Wind (4) LLC and KODE Novus II, further enrich the region's wind energy contributions. In a country with over 10,000 total plants, Goodwell’s positioning is crucial, especially as it supports national goals of increasing renewable energy share. The facility is operated by Enel Green Power NA Inc., a leader in sustainable energy solutions, and its commissioning reflects the growing commitment to clean energy. As the U.S. energy landscape evolves, the Goodwell Wind Project exemplifies the potential for wind energy to play a pivotal role in the transition to a sustainable future.
