Wind farm plan eyed for Pasquotank Perquimans counties
The Pasquotank County Planning Council will review a Desert Wind Energy Project permit application next Wednesday. The North Carolina project includes about 150 turbines on 20,000 acres, with 80 in Pasquotank and 70,000 homes powered by as much as 300 megawatts. Temporary local jobs and landowner payments are expected, while Invenergy pursues additional turbines in Camden and Currituck counties. The Navy will evaluate coastal base implications for a Joint Strike Fighter program and potential landing field.
