Horizon Wind Energy LLC (Horizon), a leading wind project developer, owner,
and operator, owned by EDP Renovaveis, has just entered into a long-term 
power purchase agreement with Snohomish County Public Utility District
 (Snohomish) to sell renewable wind energy from the Wheat Field Wind Farm. 
Horizon's Wheat Field Wind Farm, located in Gilliam County, Oregon, will have 
an installed capacity of 96.6 megawatts (MW) of renewable wind energy and 
will consist of 46 Suzlon S88 2.1 MW turbines.

   "We look forward to working with Snohomish County Public Utility District, the largest public utility district in
 Washington State, and applaud Snohomish for taking action to supply its customers with clean, renewable 
wind energy," said Antonio Martins da Costa, chairman and chief executive officer of Horizon Wind Energy.

    Located near the city of Arlington, Oregon, on approximately 8,300 acres of cultivated wheat fields 
that overlook the windswept banks of the Columbia River Gorge, the Wheat Field Wind Farm will 
deliver enough clean electricity to power approximately 29,000 average Washington homes
annually. The Wheat Field Wind Farm offers significant economic benefits to the local community 
including property tax revenues. The project is currently under construction and is expected to start 
producing clean, renewable energy for the Snohomish customers in spring, 2009.

    "We're pleased to add this renewable wind project as another clean energy source in our power 
mix," said Steve Klein, PUD general manager. "This reinforces our commitment to 
environmentally-friendly energy sources and helps fulfill requirements under Washington's renewable 
portfolio standard law."
