   North Iowa Municipal Electric Cooperative Association (NIMECA) enters 
into a long-term agreement to purchase energy from Willow Creek Wind in 
Butte County, South Dakota, US. 
 
   NIMECA, power supplier to 13 municipal utilities in northern Iowa, will 
offtake power from Ørsted's Willow Creek Wind in Butte County, 
which has been operational since September 2020. 
 
   "We're excited to team up with NIMECA to assist them in providing 
renewable energy to homes, business, factories, and farms in and around 
their local communities," said Vishal Kapadia, Senior Vice President and 
Chief Commercial Officer of Onshore in Ørsted, continuing: "The PPA 
with NIMECA provides access to clean energy for multiple local 
municipalities, adding to the diversity of our portfolio and expanding 
our customer relationships to an important segment of the market." 
 
   "Adding Willow Creek Wind to NIMECA's generation portfolio helps to 
diversify our energy supply," said Greg Fritz, CEO of NIMECA, adding: 
"We're pleased to be working with Ørsted to provide our municipal 
utility members with low-cost, clean energy." 
 
   NIMECA is the seventh establishment to enter into a power purchase 
agreement with Ørsted Onshore this year.
