Why Wind Energy?

Wind is a renewable resource that can be used to generate utility scale electricity. Wind electric generation is a proven technology that has become competitive with traditional fossil fuels. The industry has grown over 30 percent for the last 10 years. Currently there are over 79,000 MW installed worldwide. Many regions of the United States have great wind resources that can provide clean energy to help meet the increasing energy demands of tomorrow.

Wind Energy is an attractive option for energy generation:

- With the current government subsidies, the economics of wind generation are attractive
- Communities often benefit from wind farms as the tax basis changes favorably
- Land owners are able to create new revenue steams without changing the use of their land.
- Wind Energy will produce clean electricity and reduce the impact of greenhouse gases

Where is Wind Energy a Viable Option?

There are many aspects that are calculated in choosing a site to develop a wind farm. Generally, the best sites for wind generation have a consistent wind speed of over 12 mph and are close to high tension lines. If you believe you have land that might be a good prospective site for wind generation, PurePoint Energy stands ready to help you assess the feasibility of your location.
