Long Island’s appetite for energy can be satisfied by using renewable technologies such as wind turbines. A cheaper alternative to building more power plants is independent production by Long Island residents. Each resident or business owner residing in an area with a viable wind resource has the capability of providing their own energy right on their property by installing moderate wind turbines. These turbines will decrease the stress on the grid, and consequentially LIPA will reward you by providing a rebate on the installed cost of the wind turbine.
