By early 2004, seven wind farms totaling over 148 megawatts (MW) of power will be built in Pennsylvania, making the State the leader in the Eastern United States for wind development. Another 249 MW of additional projects are anticipated in the next two years.

Allow us to take you on a tour of some of the wind farms that are generating electricity for Pennsylvania. The best way to embrace the concept of new wind energy generation is to see the turbines up close and in person. This, we hope, is the next best thing to being there.

Wind Farms To Visit:

Hazelton - The first wind farm to go on-line in Pennsylvania. Come see what started all the hype!
