Enel North America has begun operations of the 200-megawatt Alta Farms wind farm in DeWitt County.
The project supports Meta’s DeKalb Data Center through a 125 MW long-term power purchase agreement. Alta Farms also supports the Indiana Municipal Power Agency (IMPA) with a 75 MW long-term power purchase agreement.
Enel began construction at Alta Farms in 2021. Representing an investment of over $345 million, the project created over 275 jobs during construction and will employ around 12-15 full-time workers for long-term operations and maintenance.
Over its lifetime, Alta Farms is expected to generate over $44 million in local property tax revenue and over $50 million in lease payments to landowners
