In this workshop, you’ll learn about wind and solar power generation, view a working installation and discover the challenges of generating power in an urban environment.
We’ll cover the details of how Blacksburg Wind Power went about installing the small-scale wind turbine and solar arrays at the Y Center one year ago, and find out how this could translate to an installation at your home.
Instructor Peter Thompson is a member of the Blacksburg Wind Power project team and CEO at Streamlined Strategies.
