East Bay Community Energy formally opened a new 57.5 MW wind farm in the Altamont Pass in Livermore under hot sunny, nearly breezeless skies the morning of Sept. 24. The project will be sending most of the power into the grid from about 4 PM to 10 PM.

She added the wind farm has created jobs and will lower utility bills.
