The first step in providing support for
wind systems is assessing the wind quality
at a proposed site, so the Energy Trust
of Oregon has funded a wind Anemometer
Loan program. Wind anemometers are measuring
devices that provide valuable data on
a site's wind quality and speed, and
helps potential wind turbine users evaluate
a site's suitability for turbine placement.
The program is administered
by Oregon State University's Energy Resource
Research Laboratory (ERRL) and is now
accepting applications. There are currently
16 anemometers in use by the program,
and they are available free of charge
to landowners whose sites meet initial
screening characteristics. Find
out more about the wind Anemometer Loan
program.
