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.

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. Exhibitor options are available. Please follow this link for more information.
