U. Maine to install wind turbine

MaineToday.com:
"PRESQUE ISLE -- The University of Maine at Presque Isle has reached an agreement for construction of a wind turbine on campus.

President Don Zillman says the $2 million project underscores the willingness of UMPI to take a leadership role in making campus wind power a reality.

General contractor Lumus Construction will install the 600-killowatt wind turbine, which is expected to be producing clean energy by late spring.

The project will make UMPI the first university in Maine and one of only a handful in New England with a mid-size wind turbine."
