Wind energy to serve growing needs in Missouri
News of 29-10-2006
Skepticism about wind energy in Missouri was blown away October 20, 2006, when legislators toured construction of the state's first wind farm and developers announced that a third utility-scale wind farm will be built and operating near by town of Conception in Nodaway County in northwest Missouri by the end of 2007. About 20 Nodaway County landowners are involved in the Conception project, which will span more than 7,000 acres. They will receive annual lease payments for hosting turbines, and the county will benefit from an expanded tax base and job creation.
