Wind Farms Springing Up in Adair County, Iowa
Radio Iowa reports Invenergy has proposed a wind project near Adair and Cass counties in Iowa called “Windy Hills.” Landowners housing turbines of the project will be compensated at $5,000 per turbine for the first year and the rate will compound by 2% each year thereafter. Clipper Wind Power and Alliant Energy also announced plans for wind farms within the same counties. This will create a strong tax base for the community and will add jobs to the area.
