Brawn With the Wind
Goldman Sachs and other financial powerhouses get into the Texas wind biz
By Kate Galbraith
23 Mar 2007
What is Goldman Sachs doing in rural Texas? Probably some of its bankers have wondered that themselves, when they find they're three hours from the nearest latte.
One of Goldman's subsidiaries, Houston-based Horizon Wind Energy, is constructing a $600 million, 400-megawatt wind farm in the boonies west of Dallas. Financiers of other wind-power projects and explorations, spread across central and west Texas, include Wells Fargo; JPMorgan Chase; Macquarie, Australia's largest investment bank; and John Deere's credit division, which already has close ties to rural America.
To some extent, the lure of wind for such financial powerhouses is obvious. Bankers are always looking for high-growth sectors for investment or loans. Wind fits the bill, as the fastest-growing energy segment in the world. In Texas -- which last year passed California to become the largest wind-power producer in the U.S. -- the boom is sometimes likened to the gold rush. Energy giants such as BP and Shell are investing heavily too.
From the perspective of local developers, the interest is more than welcome. "It's nice to have steady financial backing," says Randy Sowell, a wind developer in West Texas. His company, Austin-based Fremantle Energy, has entered into a joint venture with Macquarie to start up wind and renewable-energy projects in the U.S. "You need to have that substantial muscle behind you to have that commitment."
