National Wind Technology Center

The National Renewable Energy Laboratory's (NREL's) National Wind
Technology Center (NWTC), located at the base of the foothills just
south of Boulder, Colorado, is the nation's premier wind energy
technology research facility. Built in 1993, the center provides an
ideal environment for the development of advanced wind energy
technologies. The goal of the research conducted at the center is to
help industry reduce the cost of energy so that wind can compete with
traditional energy sources, providing a clean, renewable alternative
for our nation's energy needs.
