Wind Power
Wind power is one source of electrical generation which is being researched
for future energy applications.
- Glenmore Wind Energy Facility
In early 1998, two wind turbines were built on a farm on a ridge south of Green
Bay to determine the feasibility of generating electricity from the wind in
Wisconsin.
- Lincoln Wind Energy Facility
Fourteen large wind turbines are now making electricity for customers of
Wisconsin Public Service. The Lincoln Wind Energy Facility added 9
megawatts of renewable wind energy to the Wisconsin Public Service electric
system to comply with the Governor's Electric Reliability Law of 1998 (1997
Wisconsin Act 204).
- Crane Creek Wind Farm
Wisconsin Public Service is proposing to own a 99-megawatt wind farm near Riceville
in Howard County, in northeastern Iowa.
