January 2026 Construction Update
Happy New Year from the Emerson Creek Wind team!
With the holiday break behind us, our construction team is focused on important site preparation items before the formal project laydown yard is installed. Some initial construction items over the past month include:
Location flagging for access road entrances, laydown yard, and other site preparation activities
Initial component delivery (i.e. Conex storage, anchor bolts for turbine foundations, and other materials)
Access road entrances and other locations are being flagged throughout project area
As we move forward, you should notice increased activity around the project site in early February for the installation of the main laydown yard and other site preparation activities. Rest assured, we're working diligently to minimize disruptions while making steady progress on this important project for Erie and Huron counties.
