Company Statement

MISSION STATEMENT
Our targeted and select ownership of world-class wind energy opportunities, comprehensive understanding of the entire wind energy business, access to transmission and 28 years of continuous operating experience enables Western Wind Energy to selectively develop the highest yielding wind energy assets in the US.


Operations and Technology

Western Wind owns more than 4,000 acres of fee simple land and leases more than 22,000 acres in California and Arizona. Most of the Western Wind land has been zoned and permitted for wind development. The company is currently producing 34.5MW of energy generated through 503 operating turbines.

Western Wind has long-term Power Purchasing Agreements (PPAs) in place for the 154.5MW of energy and expects to meet this level of productivity within eighteen months. The agreements in place carry a value of more than US$1 billion over the next twenty years, including the Production Tax Credit (PTC) granted by the federal government. Work is carried out through the company's subsidiaries, Aero Energy LLC (California) and Verde Resources Corp. (Arizona).
