Wind Power - Why not in Painesville?
This is another topic that generates a lot of controversy when talked about. Since Perry started putting up some windmills I wanted to learn more about the feasability of doing it in Painesville. I know the city did some tests a few years ago at either the water or sewer plant. In my search for info I came across this site Wind Resource Explorer that has Ohio Wind Mapping available. Before you assume a quick answer from the site spend some time and learn what it all means and zoom in some of the maps.
