Northern Colorado Wind LLC is a 174.3 MW wind power plant located in Logan County, Colorado. The plant began operating in 2009 and is owned and operated by Northern Colorado Wind LLC, a subsidiary of NextEra Energy. It utilizes two onshore wind turbine generators. The facility is interconnected to the Public Service Company of Colorado balancing authority within the Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC) NERC region.
The plant's primary fuel source is wind (WND). The wind turbines have a hub height of 80 meters and a rotor diameter of 91 meters. The turbines were manufactured by GE Wind, model GE1.6-91. In the most recent year of data, the plant generated 557,526 MWh, achieving a capacity factor of 36.4%. Northern Colorado Wind LLC ranks as the 16th largest wind farm out of 21 in Colorado, and 413th out of 734 nationally.

This plant is in a bilateral market territory without organized wholesale pricing. Nodal pricing data is not available.
No wholesale contracts disclosed in FERC EQR for this plant.
FERC EQR captures bilateral wholesale energy + capacity contracts ≥$1M/yr filed quarterly by jurisdictional sellers — covers renewable PPAs, thermal energy sales agreements, capacity contracts, and tolling agreements alike. Many plants don't appear: regulated-utility output flows to ratepayers via cost-of-service rather than bilateral contracts; small projects fall below the filing threshold; tax-equity-financed renewables route offtake to investors not utilities; merchant plants sell into ISO clearing markets without bilateral contracts. News-extracted buyer facts (below) may surface contracts disclosed only through announcements.
