Those looking to the horizon in southern Tippecanoe County for spinning wind turbines will have to wait a little longer.
EDF Renewable Energy, a third-party operator that maintains wind farms and has recently been working to develop its own, is terminating its lease agreements on nearly 10,381 acres in southeast Tippecanoe County after seven years of communication with property owners.
The company informed its lessors in an annual meeting on June 19 about the shutdown of Tippecanoe Wind Project. However, property owner and lessor Allen Orr said the reasons he heard were somewhat vague.
Orr, who leased his 185 acres to EDF, said during the annual meeting in 2012 company officials alluded to an economic problem.
