怀俄明州拉勒米县夏延市西北约20英里11亿美元拉勒米岭风电项目10月26日获州许可：139台风机、附带26项条件
怀俄明州工业选址委员会10月26日为11亿美元的拉勒米岭风电项目签署州许可，但其中一项住宅退距条件可能改变风机的布局。项目由雷普索尔旗下子公司ConnectGen拉勒米县公司开发，将在夏延市西北约20英里的法辛牧场及相邻州有土地上建设139台风机，占地41220英亩，满发容量650兆瓦，约可为20万户怀俄明州家庭供电。
电力将接入现有的345千伏奥尔特至拉勒米河输电线路，并入三州输电系统。许可共附带26项条件，其中18项为所有风电设施的通用条件，8项针对该项目地块。
争议最大的是一项住宅退距条件：原本只针对一处邻近牧场的2.5英里缓冲带被扩大到项目周边所有住宅。开发商因此撤回了县级申请，正在修改选址方案，并表示这一变化不会让项目无法推进，但需要正式提出修正申请并公示。
拉勒米县委员会曾在2025年9月以3比1否决了原170台风机、56000英亩的设计方案，州许可并不推翻地方决定，县级程序必须重新启动。项目计划最迟2027年第四季度开工，工期24个月，两期工程应在2029年底前投运。
Wyoming's $1.1 Billion Laramie Range Wind Project Wins State Permit on October 26 Northwest of Cheyenne: 139 Turbines With 26 Conditions
Wyoming's Industrial Siting Council signed the state permit on October 26 for the $1.1 billion Laramie Range Wind Project, though one residential setback condition could change the layout of the turbines. The project, developed by ConnectGen Laramie County, a Repsol affiliate, will build 139 turbines on Farthing Ranch and adjacent state land about 20 miles northwest of Cheyenne, covering 41,220 acres, with a full capacity of 650 megawatts, enough to power roughly 200,000 Wyoming homes. The power will connect to the existing 345-kilovolt Ault-to-Laramie River transmission line and into the Tri-State transmission system.
The permit carries 26 conditions, 18 of them standard conditions for all wind facilities and 8 specific to this site. The most contentious is a residential setback condition: a 2.5-mile buffer that originally applied only to one neighboring ranch was expanded to all residences around the project. The developer has therefore withdrawn its county application and is revising its siting plan, saying the change will not make the project unworkable but will require a formal amendment application and public notice.
The Laramie County Commission voted 3-1 in September 2025 to reject the original design of 170 turbines on 56,000 acres; the state permit does not overturn the local decision, and the county process must restart. The project is planned to begin construction by the fourth quarter of 2027 at the latest, over a 24-month build, with both phases in operation by the end of 2029.
