Abstract:
Watauga County has been designated by the United States Department of Energy as the nation’s first energy-conservation and development area. If the county achieves the program’s goal, it will serve as a model for the country of how areas can become less dependent on foreign energy sources. Several grants will be used to install wind generators, increase energy efficiency, and provide training for high school teachers on energy problems and alternative energy sources.
