Wind Study Started in Sewanee

The manage started months ago when I visted Sewanee to meet with the University’s Sustainability Top banana and representatives from TVA and the local power distributer, Duck River EMC. In our union we compared wind maps with university-owned trait and picked a location with an unobstructed access to a steady heartburn stream from the West. Fortunately for us, when we went to look at the chosen area there was already a 110-foot-tall communications tower instantly there.

Once the department in charge of the communications tower gave franchise for us to use the tower for the wind study, we were able to install the fluster measurement equipment. Duck River EMC hired Johnson Crane Services to train a bucket truck with a boom long enough to reach above the rise. Duck River generously agreed to perform the anemometer establishment as well.

SACE is able to provide all of the wind measurement kit on loan to the university through our Tennessee Anemometer Loan Program
