Combining Turbine Outputs? [RE-wrenches]

Windy's et al,
I'm working on the design of a 3 wind turbine project. Each turbine is
65kW at 480V, 3-phase, 200 Amps max. The machines will be located about
700 feet from the point of interconnection (POI) and rather than bring 3
sets of parallel cables back to the POI, I'm thinking that it would be more
economical to combine their outputs in the field and run a single set of
cables back to the POI.
Does anyone have a suggestion on what type of equipment is available to
establish a code-compliant 3 into 1 combiner bus? I'm imagining some kind
of pad-mounted NEMA enclosure, but quite frankly, this is bigger than
anything I've ever done and I'm quite clueless about the options.
Thanks to all,
Dave
