Caprock Wind

Caprock Wind reached initial commercial operation in 2004 and was comprised of 80 1.0 MW wind turbine generators. In 2024 LRE began a repowering effort to replace the former turbines with 4.0MW turbines, reducing the number of turbines to 20 while maintaining the nameplate capacity of 80MW. The Caprock Wind repowering is scheduled to be completed by 2025.

Community Involvement

The Caprock Wind Project will be a power generation resource for 30 years or more, providing significant economic development and funding for local public services. LRE prioritizes responsibly sourced, U.S.-made components and local labor. The low-cost, emission-free power supply will help meet domestic energy needs.

As a dedicated member of the community, LRE will work hard to be a good neighbor. Our involvement goes beyond economic investment, job creation and providing emission-free energy. We strive to build lasting partnerships with local government, community organizations and individual neighbors. Throughout the life of the project, we pride ourselves on being open in our communication and responsive to feedback, and to ongoing community investment.
