Shared Success
Community and economic benefits
Lone Star Wind Farm yields significantly in the form of payments to landowners, local spending, and annual community investment. It is also compatible with other land uses and provides a stable form of income to local landowners.
Wind turbines have a limited footprint, leaving 98% of the project’s leased land available for farming, or wildlife habitat.
