This is the first PPA announced by Enel Green Power North America since its acquisition of Kansas-based renewables company Tradewind Energy Inc, which is the original developer of White Cloud, the renewable energy unit of Italian energy giant Enel SpA (BIT:ENEL) said.

In addition to White Cloud, EGP North America also operates the 300-MW Rock Creek wind farm in the same state.
