Recording towers to measure Missoula’s wind potential
| November 20, 2008 |  View for printing |
Missoula will have at least five wind-reading devices within the month to measure wind flow in hopes that data collected will prove favorable for installing energy turbines in the future.
The man coordinating Missoula’s research is a University of Montana senior who is starting up a wind energy branch with UM’s Alternative Energy Technologies.
Christopher Giarratana, a current intern with the office, found an alternative energy company in Wyoming that will donate towers used to record wind-flow data.
