Weather peril exposure
BALDWIN WIND LLC is a 102 MW wind power plant in Burleigh County, ND, operated by BALDWIN WIND LLC, commissioned in 2010. Burleigh County carries critical modeled catastrophe exposure in the FEMA National Risk Index, scoring 5.0 of 5 at the 99th national percentile. Hail is the leading peril, rated Relatively High by FEMA at the 100th 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.
