Barracks Beach Windmill



Barracks Beach Windmill

Renewable Energy in Action.

The Partnership sponsored the Presque Isle Wind Energy Project, which included the installation of the 10 Kilowatt wind turbine on Barracks Beach across from the Stull Interpretive Center. It produces between 11,000-12,000 kwh/yr of clean, emissions-free electricity; enough power to sustainably run the center. This project is an investment in Pennsylvania's energy future of clean and renewable energy, and it demonstrates the air pollution reductions realized by electricity that offsets fossil fuel-generated electricity.
