Event Notice: Wind Power Workshop in Tiverton

Great news on the local sustainable energy front! At the December 10th Town Council meeting it was decided to hold a second dedicated workshop on wind power in Tiverton. Helping to drive the decision was the announcement of the new Sustainable Energy Group we have formed in town. Given this new group, I was contacted and asked to attend. But I need your help.

This is a great opportunity to come out and show your support for sustainable energy. There is good potential for wind power in Tiverton. We just need the town to make the commitment to take the next step and begin gathering all the relevant facts and information. Hopefully this session puts that good foot forward.

Tiverton Town Council Wind Power Workshop
Tuesday, January 22, 7:00PM
Tiverton Town Hall, Highland Road

Hope to see you there! Feel free to pass this on to friends and family. The meeting is open to the public.

The Providence Journal [Business Section]Tues. 1-15-08 had two articles: " Cape Wind Project Gets a Lift from Environmental Impact Report" by Timothy Barmann and "National Grid Agrees to Buy Renewable Energy" by Benjamin Gedan.
The Gedan article went on to say that NG's "previous refusal to make long-term commitments to buy renewable energy has discouraged [alternative energy] projects in RI. National Grid is a British Company.
