Wyoming Cancels Wind Farm Leases for Pronghorn H2 and Sidewinder Projects
HYDROGEN
Wyoming officials have canceled state land leases for the Pronghorn H2 and Sidewinder wind projects, effectively halting both initiatives. The decision followed a 3-2 vote by the state land commission, citing public opposition and a court ruling that invalidated a lease for Pronghorn due to regulatory noncompliance.
Focus Clean Energy, the developer, has reduced the project's area by 70% and eliminated its hydrogen production component. The company plans to appeal the court decision.
