Noble Environmental has several windparks totaling more than 1,000MW renewable energy under development in New York and Michigan and is now conducting preliminary research to determine if there are suitable sites for windpark development in New England. VERA has more than two decades of experience with wind resource assessments and wind turbine siting work in New England and has managed the development of the Searsburg, Deerfield and Lowell projects in Vermont and the Hoosac Project in Massachusetts. Noble's preliminary site evaluation will include an evaluation of wind resources and extensive dialogue with local communities to explore their attitudes toward wind energy development.
