Pacific Northwest could power future with giant wind generators
OSU researchers led by Dr. E Wendell Hewson study a three year 414500 grant from private utilities to deploy 100 foot diameter aero generators along the coast. They say 12 knot winds could yield 10000 kilowatts, with winter coastal readings above 15 knots and historic gusts to 127 mph at the Columbia River mouth.
