New Mexico - Wind

The Argonne Mesa Wind Farm consists of 90 wind turbines located 40 miles south of Santa Rosa in eastern New Mexico.

Each 227ft wind turbine has three 63ft blades and a one-acre footprint, the majority of which are aligned along a northeast to southwest axis.

Electricity produced by the 90-megawatt wind farm serves over 23,000 homes in Arizona, through a purchase power agreement by the owners of the wind farm and APS, the public service utility company in Arizona.

More than 35 miles of overhead transmission lines connect the facility to the interconnect substation.
