Friday, June 6, 2008
The American Wind Energy Association (AWEA) released the rankings of the leaders in wind power production, and Iowa, Illinois and Minnesota were among the leaders. Minnesota is third and Iowa, fourth in the nation in terms of total installed wind power. Illinois was listed as third in the nation in new wind power added in 2007. ELPC has been a lead supporter of policies to increase demand for wind power production around the Midwest.

We are interested in wind power and wish to know what we need to do to qualify for federal help in placeing windmills on our farm? We raise cattle and goats. We also have horses and hogs. We bale 3-4 thousand bales of hay a year, both custom and to resell and for our own use. 50% of our baling is round bales and the other half is square. We are interested in powering two homes and 4 barns and we have 8 acres at the home place, where the windmills would be. Thank you for your help.

We own a lot of land in Midland Michigan and would like to develop it for use in windmill energy production

I have a farm in Nebraska and am interested on how do I qualify for wind energy production on the farm. The wind blows everyday in Nebraska.

I own a small farm (82 acres) and raise hay. I am interested in small wind turbine energy for my home.
