A message to our landowners:
Welcome to Compass Wind, a community-based
wind developer. Since forming in 2007,
we have built a diverse, skilled team that has
been involved in thousands of megawatts of
energy financings, including multiple wind
projects. Financially, our company is backed
by a long standing private investment firm
experienced in both conventional and renewable
energy. With this combination, we bring
the experience and capital strength needed to
address the challenges of building utility-scale
community wind projects in today’s market.
Currently, we are undergoing considerable
market expansion in the wind industry with
the trend towards larger and larger projects.
These projects require a significant amount of
land to be held for many years until transmission
infrastructure and demand are available to accommodate their large size.
Our business model is different. We focus on
significantly smaller projects, aimed at power
purchasers that have a present need for wind power and that have existing infrastructure
that can accept this power. Because of our
emphasis on local projects, we can often enter
into direct power purchase negotiations with
the utility, streamline the interconnection
process, and avoid extensive infrastructure
build-out, while providing landowners the
opportunity to participate in projects built
on their land.
In all, our business model is intended to
increase the likelihood of development and
reduce the time to commercial operation. Our confidence in this model is reflected in
our form agreements for landowners, which
are shorter in duration and provide greater
potential benefits to you the landowner.
Our goal is to build not only successful
projects, but also successful partnerships
with landowners and their communities.
If you would like more information about Compass Wind, please contact us. We encourage you to call us with any questions and look forward to the possibility of working with you.
Sincerely,
Chris McCall, President
