State fair has 133 ft high wind turbine

by David Allen on Sunday, August 5th, 2007

State fairs are another event that are hardly eco friendly, can you just imagine how much power is used on the all of those rides and lights etc? Let alone all of the transporting of equipment.

So in order to provide a little bit of eco friendliness the Mid American Energy Co have built a massive 133 ft tall wind turbine at the Iowa State Fair, which apart from being a major attraction, will provide enough power for all of the rides, in fact it is believed that the whole site can be taken off of the grid.

This could a great idea for all stadiums and arenas to follow, and then there would be some significant savings in energy usage.
