«The whole process from start to execution has been outstanding, and ArcVera has been great to work with. There was only one minor weather-related-sensor issue at one of our three reference masts. This is much better than anticipated as the Scout Clean Energy Heart of Texas wind project sees various degrees of severe weather, from ice storms to thunderstorms producing large hail. The ArcVera team keeps our site personnel and me regularly updated on the progress of the tests with clear, concise, and important information. This test went much smoother than expected and has been one of the best-executed PPT tests that I have ever been involved with.»

Highland Wind Farm

  • Capacity: 62.5 MW
  • Turbine type: Nordex N-90
  • Location: Krayn, Pennsylvania, USA
  • Online date: August 2009

ArcVera Renewables supported financing of the Highland Wind Farm with a bankable wind resource assessment, turbine technology review, and construction monitoring. The project debt was syndicated, so we participated in a syndication meeting; subsequently, we provided an operational energy assessment for the project in support of refinancing. In addition, we delivered a due diligence report in support of a sale process for an equity stake in the project.

Heart of Texas Wind Project

  • Capacity: 180 MW
  • Turbine type: GE 2.8-127, GE 2.72-116, GE 2.52-127 *
  • Location: McCulloch County, Texas, USA
  • Online date: COD April 28th, 2020

As a key technical advisor to Scout Clean Energy, ArcVera has provided leading technical support for the Heart of Texas and other wind energy development projects. With the construction of Heart of Texas completed in June 2020, Scout needed to complete a power performance test to verify the wind turbine performance matched the contractual requirements. As the technical advisor for the project through acquisition, Scout requested ArcVera provide its power performance testing (PPT) services. The PPT services began in October 2020, and the project was completed in March 2021. Three separate tests were performed, one for each version of the GE 2-MW wind turbine installed.
