“We are proud to partner with RES, a leading renewable energy developer and constructor, on our first project together,” said Mr. Halligan.
“The Rattlesnake Wind Project will be a valuable asset benefitting Texas’ electricity consumers, further evidence that the state’s encouragement of diverse generation resources is succeeding,” stated Glen Davis, RES’ President and CEO, Americas. “RES looks forward to working alongside Goldwind Americas and contributing additional renewable electricity to the ERCOT grid.”
