Windmills for Huntley School District 158?

A location needs two things to support windmills:

  • Wind
  • High power lines

I don’t know if there is adequate wind blowing past the Huntley School District 158 Administrative Building, but there are certainly high power lines.

Electric company Com Ed, of course, makes it as difficult as possible to get wind mills off the ground.

But it might be possible. And the expert in the area for schools is David Ulm. He’s right next door in District 300.

The windmills you see above were seen in Idaho.
