ETEC Generation Projects

Energy to grow East Texas.

ETEC continues to pursue a diversified energy portfolio, including renewable resources. We believe in building and investing in projects that protect us during potential major outages caused by natural disasters and provide the kind of power needed for the future. Our goal is to provide the most economical power to our members as close to home as possible.

    “ETEC has worked hard to diversify the energy mix that provides electric power to our member-cooperatives, as we believe this is the best approach to assure an affordable, reliable system for our members. By adding wind power, we will have additional renewable energy to complement other sources now in use,” said Edd Hargett, Former General Manager of ETEC.

    “Redbed Plains marks a significant milestone for RES, as it is our eighth wind project in Oklahoma,” stated Jason Zingerman, Senior VP Construction for RES. “We look forward to continued work with landowners and major stakeholders to bring the economic benefits of renewable energy to the Sooner State.”

    With the completion of Redbed Plains, RES will have developed and/or constructed more 1,100 MW of wind energy in Oklahoma. Per the American Wind Energy Association, Oklahoma now ranks third in the United States with more than 6,600 MW of wind power installed.

    “EDPR NA will expand its footprint to more than 600 MW of operational wind projects in Oklahoma with the completion of the Redbed Plains Wind Farm,” said Phillip Westerby, Executive Vice President, Technical. “The company remains committed to providing clean, renewable energy throughout North America.”

    RES began construction in April 2017 with completion scheduled for fourth quarter 2017.
