An analysis of empirical cases of community wind in Oregon

Abstract

Recently, a new type of ownership has emerged in the wind energy sector in the U.S. that is referred to as community wind. With the fact that there is little literature on empirical experience of such smaller community based projects, this paper attempts to present seven community wind cases in Oregon to identify opportunities and barriers and so to provide practical information to those who are interested in developing community wind.
