Owner data does not fully agree across sources.
EIA typically reports the operating utility, while GEM resolves to the financial owner or parent corporation. Both can be correct.

The Berkshire wind power project became fully operational in 2011, and provides enough electricity to power 7,800 homes annually.
Read more on WikipediaThe Berkshire Wind Power Project is a 19.6 MW wind power facility located in Berkshire County, Massachusetts. The plant began operating in 2011 and is owned and operated by the Massachusetts Municipal Wholesale Electric Company. It utilizes three onshore wind turbines manufactured by GE Wind, specifically the GE1.5-77 model, each with a rotor diameter of 77 meters and a hub height of 80 meters. The primary fuel source for the plant is wind (WND).
In the most recent year of data, the Berkshire Wind Power Project generated 41,928 MWh of electricity, achieving a capacity factor of 24.5%. The plant operates within the ISO New England Inc. balancing authority and the NPCC NERC region. It is the third-largest wind power plant in Massachusetts out of 21, and ranks 1094th nationally out of 1424 wind plants.

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.
