NaturEner USA, a renewable energy company, announced on Tuesday that is is set to proceed with construction on the 189 MW Rim Rock wind power project in Glacier County and Toole County. NaturEner says it expects to achieve commercial operation on the Rim Rock project by the end of 2012.
In a press release, NaturEner said that it is ready to proceed with the project after securing a construction loan and the promise of a $285 million tax-equity capital contribution from San Diego Gas & Electric Company once the project has reached commercial operation. Rim Rock will have access to transmission via the Montana AlbertaTie Line (MATL).
Governor Brian Schweitzer said in a press release, "This is big news for Montana and the Hi-Line with another $605 million of investment in wind energy development. It will create hundreds of good paying construction jobs and be a sustainable property tax base for local governments".
