Bruennings Breeze
The Bruenning’s Breeze Wind Farm is located in Willacy County, Texas near the towns of Raymondville and San Perlita. The 228 MW wind energy facility consists of 76 Acciona / Nordex 3 MW turbines. The project is located only a few miles from the Gulf of Mexico which caused subsurface difficulties due to the high water tables. The project was impacted by over a month of high wind-related shutdowns, hurricane Harvey and other storm-related flooding that spread over 2 feet of water across thousands of acres of the project. Despite these obstacles, the project was completed on time and within budget.
