Installed capacity of 199-megawatts of renewable energy
Project overview
Turtle Creek Wind Farm is located in northeastern Iowa, 25 miles northeast of Mason City and approximately 110 miles southeast of Minneapolis. The wind farm complements the area’s robust crop production and provides local agricultural producers with a stable revenue stream in the form of landowner lease payments.
Turtle Creek Wind Farm yields significantly in the form of payments to landowners, local spending, and annual community investment. Turtle Creek Wind Farm is also compatible with other land uses and provides a stable form of income to local landowners.
