News today over at "Green Inc.", that a new deal has been struck involving a large wind power project in Oregon. Most of the parts for the project will be/have been made in the US, and the project will have about 845 megawatts of power capacity. 338 turbines are planned, meaning each one on average has a capacity of 2.5 megawatts.
While not in total a huge amount of power for the US, this is a great step forward in clean, renewable, home-grown energy. Now we need about a hundred more like it.
Geoscience news & issues on planet Earth, as well as anything else geological I feel like yabbering about.
