Abstract:
Despite the breakdown of the wind generator on Howard’s Knob overlooking Boone, wind power is a feasible means of producing electricity. Dr. L. Linn Mackey of the Earth Studies Program at Appalachian State University said two smaller windmills he supervises demonstrate the workability of wind generation. The windmills are designed to reduce a household’s dependency on utility power by about half, and to occasionally generate power into power company lines.
