45' Skystream 3.7 Windmill
|
In August 2009 West Quoddy Station erected a new 45' Skystream 3.7 Windmill with a maxmimum output of 2.3 KW per Hour. Each of the 3 carbon fiber blades are 3.7' long with an overall 6' radius. The Windmill was sold and erected by Norbert Lemieux of Cutler, Maine. Digging, forming and pouring the foundation took a day and a half. After 2+ weeks of curing, the wind generator was raised in half a day. The windmill generated approximately 6KW per day in September. October and the winter promises much higher generation rates as the seasonal winds increase. The windmill delivers AC directly to the [Bangor Hydro] grid and gives 100% credit to West Quoddy Station.
