The largest wind farm in Arizona is planned near Flagstaff by NextEra Energy Resources to provide power to Salt River Project, the companies announced Thursday.
Crews will construct the turbines on Babbitt Ranches land, about 25 miles north of the city off State Route 180, and generate 161 megawatts of electricity when the wind is optimal.
That is enough power to supply about 40,000 homes when the power plant is operating.
