Capture The Wind

Moorhead's Second Wind Turbine Generating Electricity!
Moorhead Public Service's second 750-kilowatt wind turbine generator is spinning in sync with Zephyr, the utility's first wind turbine generator. Construction was completed in the latter part of August, and the turbine began generating electricity at 3:00 pm on Saturday, August 25, 2001.

The utility is also recognized for charging the seventh-lowest premium in the nation for clean, wind energy.
