DUNLAP, a 116 MW Wind power plant in Carbon County, Wyoming. Operated by PACIFICORP, commissioned 2010. One of 63 power plants tracked in Wyoming on Bywatts.
How DUNLAP compares
With 116 MW of capacity, DUNLAP ranks 13th among the 53 operating power plants Bywatts maps in Wyoming and 5th of the 14 operating Wind plants in the state. It accounts for about 9.0% of Wyoming's operating Wind capacity and 1.3% of all operating capacity in the state. Nationally it is the 194th-largest of the 708 operating Wind plants in the database. Commissioned in 2010, it is newer than 92% of the 53 operating Wyoming plants with a recorded commissioning year. Its operator, PACIFICORP, runs 10 operating plants in Wyoming totaling 4,823 MW. It shares Carbon County with 4 other operating plants, including SEVEN MILE HILL and SEMINOE.
EIA-860 lists 1 generator at the site with 130 MW of nameplate capacity, all onshore wind turbine technology (this page's HIFLD capacity figure is 116 MW). Net generation was 366 GWh in 2024 (a 32% capacity factor), down 22% from 2022.
Grid neighborhood
The nearest named substation is FREEZEOUT, about 13.3 miles away; the closest transmission line found within 10 miles is a 230 kV line owned by PACIFICORP, under 0.1 miles away. One other operating power plant sits within 25 miles: SEVEN MILE HILL (124 MW, Wind).

Weather peril exposure
DUNLAP is a 116 MW wind power plant in Carbon County, WY, operated by PACIFICORP, commissioned in 2010. Carbon County carries low modeled catastrophe exposure in the FEMA National Risk Index, scoring 1.2 of 5 at the 5th national percentile. Riverine flooding is the leading peril, rated Relatively Low by FEMA at the 87th 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.
Carbon County hazard ratings
| Peril | FEMA rating | National percentile | Peril score | Events per year |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Riverine flooding | Relatively Low | 87th | 4.5 of 5 | 0.29 |
| Wildfire | Relatively Low | 81st | 4.2 of 5 | <0.01 |
| Earthquake | Relatively Low | 78th | 4.1 of 5 | <0.01 |
| Ice storm | Relatively Low | 60th | 3.4 of 5 | 0.02 |
| Winter weather | Relatively Moderate | 44th | 2.8 of 5 | 24.5 |
| Lightning | Relatively High | 22nd | 1.9 of 5 | 44.2 |
| Hail | Very Low | 15th | 1.6 of 5 | 0.23 |
| Tornado | Very Low | 10th | 1.4 of 5 | 0.37 |
| Strong wind | Very Low | 9th | 1.4 of 5 | 0.23 |
Perils not assessed in Carbon County
These perils carry no usable National Risk Index figure for this county, so they are excluded from the scoring rather than scored zero. A zero would claim the peril was assessed and found benign.
| Peril | Why it is not scored |
|---|---|
| Hurricane | FEMA rating is "Not Applicable" for this county |
| Coastal flooding | FEMA rating is "Not Applicable" for this county |
| Heat wave | FEMA rating is "No Rating" for this county |
