Our Wind Co-op
The NORTHWEST COOPERATIVE DEVELOPMENT CENTER helped on the start-up of this co-op, which recently incorporated, and will serve as technical assistance partner in its immediate development. Our Wind has already installed five small wind turbines, with another five to be installed this spring. The co-op was created in order to sell environmental attributes. or “green tags,” that represent electricity generated by small-scale, locally owned wind turbines. The pilot project seeks to determine the feasibility of such a system to offset farm electricity needs. A few turbines will be cited near cell towers for similar study.
