With its excellent wind resources, the town of Ellenburg is ideally positioned to benefit from a state-wide initiative to get more energy from renewable sources. Noble Environmental Power has constructed an 81 megawatt (MW) windpark using 54 GE 1.5 MW turbines. Together, the Noble Ellenburg Windpark and its neighboring Noble Clinton Windpark, represent a $360 million investment in clean, renewable energy that will bring an estimated $231 million in new revenue to the Ellenburg and Clinton economies over the next 20 years. On May 17, 2008, Noble held a ribbon-cutting ceremony to officially mark the start of operations; read about the ceremony in the May issue of Noble News - the North Country edition.
