2015 was a banner year for Tradewind Energy, Inc., one of the largest independent wind and solar project development companies in the United States. The success was due in part to the launch of its solar division which resulted in seven utility-scale solar projects reaching commercial operations in 2015.
 
In addition to the solar projects completed in 2015, two Tradewind-developed wind projects in Oklahoma also recently became operational: The Goodwell Wind Project and the Little Elk Wind Project. These two projects were purchased by subsidiaries of Enel Green Power North America, Inc.
 
The total combined solar and wind projects that the company has completed now stands at 1,879 MW, representing more than $3.3 billion in capital investments. Another 1,000 MW is already contracted for completion in 2016 and 2017, which is expected to result in an additional $1.7 billion in investments. Together these Tradewind-developed wind and solar projects will meet the power needs of about one million U.S. homes.
