Deuel Harvest
Wind Farm

About the Project

The Deuel Harvest Wind Farm is a 300-megawatt (MW) wind development scheduled to come online in 2020 in Deuel County, South Dakota.

Since Invenergy's first wind project in 2004, we have built 140 sustainable energy projects. Along the way we have partnered with host communities to, create jobs, invest in local economies and make low-cost, sustainable energy available to more Americans. We are excited to work with Deuel County to build on this tradition with the Deuel Harvest Wind Farm.

Help Support the Project

As the Deuel Harvest Wind Farm seeks its permits, the South Dakota Public Utilities Commission is asking for public input. Project supporters are encourage to submit letters to let the commission know you support this project and the benefits it brings to the community.
