A Strip District-based wind company has secured a contract with online retail giant Amazon to build a large wind farm in Ohio that will power the distribution company's data centers there.
EverPower Wind Holdings Inc. announced today that its first project in Ohio will be a 189 megawatt wind farm in Hardin County. It will be built by the end of 2017 and will feed power into the local grid from which Amazon Web Services, an Amazon.com company, draws its electricity.
EverPower has seven operating wind farms, four of them in Pennsylvania, and more than a dozen others in development.
