Effingham School Plans Wind Generator Test Project
Effingham Unit School District will build a three 25 foot blade wind turbine atop a 30 to 40 foot tower at a new middle school near U.S. 45. The unit district will pay 38 percent of about 40000 dollars with the Capital Development Board covering 62 percent. The system aims to produce about 15 kilowatts at 26 mph winds and connect to the utility inverter. The project marks one of the nation’s first wind tests for schools in partnership with the Capital Development Board.
