The High Prairie Renewable Energy Center is Ameren Missouri's first owned and operated wind generation facility. It was acquired by Ameren Missouri in December 2020 and has a nameplate capacity of 400 megawatts. It is the first of many renewable energy additions anticipated by the company through 2040.
The wind facility is located in Adair and Schuyler counties in Missouri. The energy center consists of 175 wind turbines that are among the most technologically advanced in the state. Ameren Missouri anticipates the energy center will produce enough energy to power the equivalent of 120,000 homes.
The Atchison Renewable Energy Center was acquired by Ameren Missouri in January 2021. The 300 MW project is located in northwest Missouri. Clean, renewable energy from the facility is already reaching customers, even as construction continues on some of the project turbines. Construction is expected to be complete in 2021.
