San Diego company buys wind farm near Palm Springs. Salka Energy will refurbish a wind facility located in Riverside County's San Gorgonio Pass
A San Diego renewable energy company that specializes in refurbishing wind farms has acquired a facility near Palm Springs. A subsidiary of Salka Energy purchased 53 wind turbines that generate 39 megawatts of capacity and about 90,000 megawatt-hours of electricity — enough to power more than 11,000 homes. Called the Cabazon Wind Farm, the facility is part of a fleet of wind projects within the San Gorgonio Pass.
' The wind farms in the San Gorgonio Pass are among the oldest in California and the Cabazon facility has been operating since 1999. Due to its age, the facility was at risk of being decommissioned but Salka's acquisition will give it new life. The company, with offices in downtown San Diego, has a history of updating legacy wind projects.
