Jamestown, ND: Wind Farms, Hydrogen, And Fertilizer -- June 8, 2023

Locator: 44878WIND.  

Proposed (sent to me by a reader, thank you very much).

New wind farm proposed:

• $400 million
• 285 wind turbines
  
• NextEra Energy Resources' North Dakota III wind farm
• Stutsman, LaMoure counties -- Jamestown area
• would power a clean hydrogen facility in North Dakota (link here);
  

This is important:

• EVs are a stop-gap / interim measure;
• the real future is hydrogen for long haul transportation: trucking, railroad, airlines

Also, a fertilizer plant, link here:

A fertilizer plant could be built in the Spiritwood area after the North Dakota Legislature approved a $125 million loan earmarked for the project if it is constructed in the state, according to local state legislators.

NextEra Energy Resources is interested in building a fertilizer plant in the Spiritwood area.
