First
Private Wind Turbine Installed in Louisiana
Waring
Architects is proud to announce the installation of the very first pair
of privately-owned, residential, grid-tied, wind turbine, electrical cogeneration
units in the States of Louisiana or Mississippi.
The
property will feature two SkyStream wind turbine generators with 12 foot
diameter blades mounted on 45 foot tall, high strength steel utility posts.
The two SkyStreams together, given an average estimated wind speeds of
12 mph available on the site according to National Weather Service statistics,
will conservatively generate approximately 800 kWh per month.
We believe that the wind speed estimate averages are low and that the
systems may well provide all of the electricity we require.
Time will tell. Obviously, we will be monitoring this closely.
