Wind Energy and Economic Development

Wind Energy and Economic Development

Across America, companies are making decisions based on one thing above all: reliable, affordable energy.


Whether it’s advanced manufacturing, clean transportation, next-generation agriculture, or data-driven industries — projects succeed where the grid is strong. Wind energy is a key part of that modern grid, delivering:


Low-cost power

Long-term energy price stability

Domestic generation with no fuel supply chain risk


In communities like ours, wind energy positions us as a place where future-focused industries can thrive. It shows that Seward County is not just watching the energy transition — we are part of it. We can already see this in action in Ford County.


By embracing wind development, we support local landowners, strengthen our tax base, and build the type of energy infrastructure that keeps Seward County competitive in the 21st-century economy.
