FPL Energy announces expansion of Oklahoma wind farm

JUNO BEACH, Fla. -- FPL Energy, LLC, a subsidiary of FPL Group (NYSE: FPL), today announced a 51-megawatt expansion of its Oklahoma Wind Energy Center and an agreement with Oklahoma Gas and Electric (OG&E) to purchase the entire output from the expansion under a long-term contract.

Today's announcement brings the total capacity of the Oklahoma Wind Energy Center, the first large scale wind energy project in Oklahoma, to 102 megawatts.

Construction of the project serving OG&E will begin after approval of the power purchase agreement between FPL Energy and OG&E by the Oklahoma Corporation Commission. The project is expected to reach commercial operation by the end of 2003.

Mike O'Sullivan, senior vice president of development for FPL Energy, said, "We are pleased to be able to expand the first wind energy project in Oklahoma and add to our industry leading wind energy portfolio. Wind power is a clean, renewable source of energy that can help to diversify our nation's energy supply and meet customers energy needs. We look forward to working with OG&E on this new project."

"We are pleased to work with a partner of FPL Energy's caliber to deliver wind-generated power to our customers," said Jack Coffman, OG&E senior vice president for power supply. "This project enables us to offer our customers a new choice. It's an exciting addition to our power supply resources."

The 102-megawatt Oklahoma Wind Energy Center will be comprised of 68 1.5-MW turbines spread over a 1,200-acre site near Woodward, in northwest Oklahoma. As previously announced, the Oklahoma Municipal Power Authority has also agreed to purchase 51 megawatts, which is under construction, from the Oklahoma Wind Energy Center under a long-term contract.
