The Georgia Wind Working Group has developed a wind guidebook specific for Georgia.  There is opportunity for individuals and community wind projects as well as utility scale wind to be developed and provide a contribution to Georgia's overall energy needs. This guidebook is intended to provide individuals, community leaders and utilities interested in developing wind with the tools and information needed to begin their project. We hope that you find this guidebook useful whether you are interested to find out more about the impacts wind power will have for Georgia, or if you want to get started with your own wind project. Special thanks go to Wind Working Group members Mary Carr with the Southern Alliance for Clean Energy, Teresa Eldredge with T.J. Schell Landscape Architects, and Liz Philpot with Southern Company for their efforts to compile information for the guidebook.
