The proposed Arkwright Summit Wind Farm will lie in the town of Arkwright, in the northern part of the county, surrounded north, east, south and west by the Towns of Sheridan, Villenova, Charlotte and Pomfret. The Wind Farm has a proposed installed capacity of 79 megawatts (MW) - enough to power more than 24,000 average New York homes with clean energy each year.
