Production
Operating at full capacity, the project would be able to supply the electricity for 100% of the households in the state several times over. South Dakota's entire electricity consumption in 2005 was 9.811 TWh. At an assumed capacity factor of 25% (probably conservative for windy South Dakota), a 5.05 GW nameplate capacity would correspond to an annual generation of:
(5.05 GW) × (0.25) × (365 days/year) × (24 hours/day) × (1 TWh/1000 GWh) = 11.0595 TWh
