Weather peril exposure
DRY LAKE WIND II LLC is a 65 MW wind power plant in Navajo County, AZ, operated by IBERDROLA RENEWABLES INC, commissioned in 2010. Navajo County carries low modeled catastrophe exposure in the FEMA National Risk Index, scoring 1.4 of 5 at the 9th national percentile. Wildfire is the leading peril, rated Relatively High by FEMA at the 95th percentile.
The Bywatts loss layer is calibrated to solar PV hardware, so it is not applied to a wind plant. The ratings below are the FEMA National Risk Index county hazard ratings for this location.
