Fairbanks Wind Park is a 72.8 MW wind power plant located in Delta County, Michigan. The plant, which began operating in 2022, is owned and operated by DTE Electric Company, a subsidiary of DTE Energy. It consists of a single generator utilizing onshore wind turbine technology. The facility uses Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy SG-3.4-132 turbines, which have a rotor diameter of 132 meters and a hub height of 84 meters.
The plant's latest annual generation was 201,025 MWh, resulting in a capacity factor of 31.5%. Fairbanks Wind Park operates within the Midcontinent Independent Transmission System Operator (MISO) balancing authority and the ReliabilityFirst Corporation (RFC) NERC region. The installed cost of the plant was $2,153.77 per kW, according to FERC data. Fairbanks Wind Park ranks as the 24th largest wind farm in Michigan out of 35, and 851st nationally out of 1424.

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.
