DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/922554· OSTI ID:922554

In March 2007, local agencies in Maine launched an effort to reduce energy costs for residents of a subsidized elderly housing complex in Winter Harbor, resulting in a federal Residential Energy Assistance Challenge (REACH) grant that entirely funded the installation of a 10-kW Bergey Excel turbine. This fact sheet describes the project, including difficulties encountered during the permitting process and a summary of the costs covered by the REACH grant.
