Wind Power for Communities: a workshop for residents of rural Oregon
(8/22/2009)
Northwest Sustainable Energy for Economic Development is pleased to present a
workshop for rural landowners, public officials and community members interested
in learning more about wind energy development. Workshop attendees will come
away with the knowledge and tools they need to ensure wind developments, large
and small, result in the greatest local benefit. The workshops will include an
introduction to modern wind technology, the various scales of wind development
and state incentives and policies effecting wind energy projects. Afternoon
break-out sessions with subject matter experts focused on small/community wind
projects and landowner participation in large-scale wind projects will also be
offered.
All workshops are open to the public with a registration fee of $35.00. A
light lunch will be provided. Registration will close on September 9th, 2009.
