Work Group Members: McLaughlin (chair), Egan, Lang, Reibel, Schmiesing, Ulrich

 

The Metro Wind Energy Work Group leads initiatives to expand the availability and use of wind energy.  This Group also serves as the liaison to the Rural Minnesota Energy Board,  a joint powers board of 17 counties in wind-rich southwestern and southern Minnesota.  Recent projects include an effort to develop a large-scale wind project in partnership with the RMEB that is intended to stablize energy costs for counties, support local economic development, and keep a greater share of investment returns in local communities.
