Description

Puget Sound Energys new Beaver Creek wind farm in Montana, a $530 million, 248-megawatt facility, is a major step towards Washingtons goal of a carbon-free power grid. The project, driven by state clean energy laws, aims to replace coal-fired electricity and meet emission-free targets by 2045. Montana was chosen for its strong wind resources and less local opposition. However, the transition to clean energy will still involve natural gas use and higher customer costs. Despite challenges, the wind farm signifies a significant move towards a cleaner energy future.
