Entered ERCOT queue and began Facility Study phase
The Cavell Wind project is a proposed 658.8 MW wind generation facility in Castro County, Texas. Developed by IP Cavell, LLC, the project entered the ERCOT interconnection queue as ERCOT-29INR0035 on July 22, 2024. Its proposed commercial operation date is July 30, 2029. The project's interconnection status is currently in the Facility Study phase.
The point of interconnection for the Cavell Wind project is the tap 345kV 23910 Windmill - 23912 Ogallala Ckt 1. The project has appeared in recent news coverage regarding renewable energy development in Texas.
