We’re focused on the development, ownership, and operation of clean, renewable wind, solar, and battery storage power projects.
Our vast experience
Now operating in its 29th year, PowerWorks is focused on the development, ownership, and operation of clean, renewable wind, solar, and battery storage power projects. Generally, our core business involves providing clean, renewable wind and solar power on a wholesale basis to electric utilities and industrial users. To that end, we perform the various project engineering and management services in-house required to develop, build, and operate these wind, solar, and/or storage projects.
Our vast experience by the numbers
During the past 28 years, PowerWorks’ project development experience has involved over 80 wind, solar, and storage projects, in 14 states and 40 countries around the world.
A select history of our operating wind projects and project development assets are described below.
Project experience
Sawtooth Wind Farm
IdahoLocated on a sugar beet farm in Elmore County, about 60 miles east of Boise, Idaho, the 22 MW Sawtooth wind farm produces enough energy to supply approximately 6,000 homes with electricity.
Desert Ridge Wind-Solar-Storage
IdahoThe proposed 695 MW Desert Ridge wind-solar-storage project, located in Elmore County, near Boise, Idaho, is in the advanced stages of development, including power marketing. Once built, over the life of the project, it’s estimated that the local economic benefits will exceed $1 billion.
Altamont Wind Farms
CaliforniaThe Altamont wind project, located in the Altamont Pass, near Livermore (San Francisco Bay Area), California, includes four projects, comprised of 920 wind turbines. For 20 years, PowerWorks Services operated and maintained this project in its state-of-the-art maintenance facility in the Altamont Pass.
Summit Wind Project
CaliforniaOnce our Altamont wind project reached its 30-year design life, we we redeveloped the site to make way for the new 58 MW Summit wind project.
Panther Creek Wind Project
IllinoisIn 2022, PowerWorks completed the development activities for the 54 MW Panther Creek wind project, located in Pike County (near Pittsfield), Illinois, including obtaining a conditional use permit and signing a 20-year power purchase agreement with Prairie Power Inc.
Capabilities
Our experienced project team is designed to provide full-service, “turnkey” capabilities — from early project development and siting, to equipment procurement and construction, to operation and maintenance, and asset management, after startup — focused upon performance and results.
