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.

Located in Morrow County, Oregon, the Wheatridge Hybrid plant is a 280 MW hybrid facility owned by NextEra Energy and operated by Wheatridge Wind Holdings, LLC. The plant began operating in 2020 and utilizes a combination of onshore wind turbines, solar photovoltaic arrays, and battery energy storage. The facility has three generators and is interconnected to the Bonneville Power Administration balancing authority within the Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC) NERC region. Wheatridge Hybrid ranks as the 6th largest of 8 plants in Oregon and 178th of 514 plants nationally.
The hybrid plant's wind component features GE Wind GE2.5-127 turbines with a hub height of 89 meters and a rotor diameter of 127 meters. The solar component uses single-axis tracking. The battery energy storage system (BESS) has a capacity of 120 MWh and a duration of 4 hours, utilizing lithium-ion battery chemistry (LIB). The latest annual generation data shows an output of 668,296 MWh, resulting in a capacity factor of 27.2%. Financial data indicates a power purchase agreement (PPA) price of $31.81 per MWh.

This plant's balancing authority participates in CAISO's Western Energy Imbalance Market (WEIM). Direct nodal pricing data is not yet 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.
