Portsmouth RI Leading the way in Green Innovation

The Town of Portsmouth has funded the deployment of a wind turbine to harvest wind energy, saving tax payers money and setting an example for other communities throughout America.

This turbine generates enough electricity for approximately 460 homes, but will be used to power schools and other municipal buildings instead, and will also generate income for the Town by reselling excess energy back to the power company.
