[edit] Construction
The construction on the twenty windmills that make up the Fenner Wind Farm started in June 2001 and were finished later that year. [1]
The turbines used were made by the famous giant Enron before the collapse of the company. The twenty turbines were situated in an ideal location for catching incoming wind. [2]
[edit] Specifications
The turbines of the Fenner Wind Farm are 1.5 Megawatts each for a total wattage of thirty megawatts. The wind farm is owned by Canastota Energy. The energy produced at the farm provides about 7000 houses worth of electricity. [3]
[edit] Today
Today the Fenner Wind Project is the middle of three projects. The first is the Madison Wind Farm and there is one under construction as of 2007.
In summer 2007, NYS Assemblyman Pete Lopez conducted a wind tour in which the Fenner Farm was a stop. [4]
