Brule County Wind: FAQ

Where is Brule County Wind?
In Brule County, South Dakota (SD). The map on this page is placed at the coordinates EIA files for the plant, which locate the site rather than any individual unit.
How big is Brule County Wind?
20 MW of nameplate capacity across 1 unit, as of the EIA-860M release for 2026-07.
Who owns Brule County Wind?
EIA-860M names RWE Clean Energy as the reporting entity. That is the operator of record on the survey, which is not always the ultimate owner.
Is this the same as Brule County Wind LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — RWE Clean Energy here — not the project company that holds the asset. Project companies are commonly registered as an LLC carrying the plant's name, so a search for "Brule County Wind LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
Is Brule County Wind still running?
EIA-860M files it as "Operating" for 2026-07. Statuses change monthly, and this page follows the monthly release.
