24 May 2006 -- PPM Energy, ScottishPower's competitive U.S. energy business, today announced the construction of the Leaning Juniper Wind Project near Arlington, Oregon. The project is expected to be commercially operational later this year.

Located in Gilliam County, approximately 25 miles from PPM's existing Klondike Wind Power Plant, Leaning Juniper is expected to generate 100 MW of electricity.

The Leaning Juniper project will use 67 1.5 MW GE turbines. PPM Energy reported that it is in advanced discussions with a customer for the entire output of the Leaning Juniper project. The company said its decision to build wind power is based on its belief that electricity generated from wind can serve as a hedge against volatile fossil fuel prices and has potential to be a reliable, low-cost source of energy.
