Construction of the 28-turbine site began in February.

This summer, Charlotte-based Duke began operating a 30-megawatt wind farm near Cheyenne, Wyo. The company plans to bring additional wind turbines into commercial operation this year in Texas.
Duke is a diversified energy company with a portfolio of natural gas and electric businesses, both regulated and unregulated, and a stake in Crescent Resources, a real estate development business. It has utility operations in the Carolinas, Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana.
