PG&E; Corp.’s Pacific Gas & Electric utility agreed to buy power from a wind farm in Oregon being built by a unit of EDP Renovaveis, helping it to meet state energy and climate goals.

The Rattlesnake Road wind farm will give the San Francisco utility 240 gigawatt-hours of power a year, EDP’s Horizon Wind Energy unit said. That’s enough for about 30,000 average homes, based on American Wind Energy Assn. data. Terms of the 15-year contract weren’t disclosed.
