Abstract:

North Carolina has a long history of windmills dating back to the 18-century. Carteret County had the most with over 65 of the total of 155 documented ones found along the coast. Today, with emphasis on clean energy, new wind projects are under consideration along the mountain ridges and the coastal areas.
