The community benefits of wind energy.
Wind energy positively impacts a community in many ways:
- More revenue through property taxes or payments in lieu of taxes
- Revenues to landowners for land leased
- Additional revenue during the construction phase of a project
- Long-term service jobs for operations and maintenance
- A clean, renewable, affordable supply of energy
- Inexhaustible and non-polluting
- Wind parks are compatible with mixed land use such as grazing, agriculture, or forestry.
