Every workday before sunrise, 10 BP workers gather on a West Texas sheep farm for morning calisthenics.
They need loose limbs to manage BP's 22,000 acres in the oil-rich Permian Basin, where temperatures can soar beyond 110 degrees. The oil giant leases the land from struggling farmers to expand its reach in the energy world.
But you won't find any oil wells or drilling rigs here.
BP and other energy companies are funneling millions into building and operating wind farms in West Texas, helping to transform oil country into one of the nation's leading hubs for green energy production.
