Biggest US Wind Project Is Due to Come Online Next Month

A wind project billed as the largest clean energy installation in the US is due to come online next month, even as the pipeline of new large-scale renewables dries up amid pressure from the Trump administration.

The SunZia wind farm in New Mexico, providing 3.5 gigawatts of power capacity — enough to power one million homes annually — will be operational as soon as June 15, according to people familiar with the matter. The project includes a 550-mile transmission line carrying electricity to Arizona, and has been in the works for two decades.
