Description

The turbines at Portland General Electric's Biglow Canyon wind farm have experienced continuing maintenance issues in recent years, despite a 2022 blade failure, additional state scrutiny and PGE's efforts to replace some turbine parts. The utility now wants to add a solar and storage project to the troubled wind farm.

Three years ago, a massive spinning blade flew off a towering turbine at Portland General Electric’s flagship wind farm in Sherman County, bringing scrutiny to the many maintenance problems, safety concerns and production lags that had long plagued one of the state’s largest and oldest wind farms.
