Dakota County / Two wind projects are set for takeoff
In Dakota County, two wind turbines are expected to go online this week - a symbolic first step, say county officials, toward generating "green" energy across the metro. ... Dakota County Commissioner Thomas Egan called the turbines "somewhat symbolic." Eight metro-area counties are negotiating to purchase wind energy from small "wind farms," which would be located in 15 rural counties in southwestern Minnesota. To promote such partnerships, the county is supporting legislation to create a statewide Renewable Energy Board.
