Smoky Hills Wind Farm
The Smoky Hills Wind Farm (Phase I & Phase II) is a 250 megawatt (MW) wind farm in Lincoln and Ellsworth Counties, 140 miles west of Topeka in Kansas, north of Ellsworth. The farm is operated by Enel Green Power.[1] Highway K-14 and Interstate 70 pass through parts of the wind farm, with clear views of many of the wind turbines.[2] The project uses 56 Vestas V80 1.8 MW wind turbines[3] and produces enough electricity to power some 37,000 average Kansas homes annually.[4] As of 19 November 2008[update], phase II is under construction with 99 GE 1.5 MW wind turbines for an additional 148.5 MW,[3] to bring the total nameplate capacity to 249.3 MW.[5] Phase II was completed and began commercial operation in December, 2008.[6]
