About

The Cattleman Wind A project is a proposed 201.6 MW wind generation facility in Castro County, Texas. The project, developed by RWE Renewables Development, LLC, is located within the ERCOT region and entered the ERCOT interconnection queue as ERCOT-16INR0014 on October 1, 2013. Its interconnection status is currently listed as Facility Study. The project has been the subject of recent news coverage.

The proposed project is composed entirely of wind generation. The point of interconnection is at the tap 345kV 79501 Ogallala - 79502 Windmill.
