The Clear Creek Energy Center is a private 242 MW wind farm,^[2] located in Nodaway County, Missouri. It contains 111 wind turbines spanning a 31,000-acre area of north of Maryville.^[3] The wind farm has two parts: 11 Vestas V110/2000 that are 110m in diameter, and 100 Vestas V120/2200 that are 120m in diameter.^[1] The energy center got its name from nearby Clear Creek ^[4] which flows to its northwest.

Facility details

Tenaska Clear Creek produces energy under a 25-year power purchase agreement with AECI, a Springfield, Missouri based electric cooperative. The turbines were manufactured by Vestas, and the power station was built by Mortenson.^[5] Over 350 local area workers were employed to construct it, and the project cost more than $300 million.^[3] The operation is supported by 16 local employees, and over 160 landowners collect over $1.2 million in leases from the wind farm.^[3]

The wind turbines are located in Atchison, Hopkins, Nodaway, Polk, and Union Townships in Nodaway County, Missouri. The headquarters is located in Union Township about 2.5 miles west-southwest of Pickering.
