The Brush wind turbine had a rotor 56 feet (17 m) in diameter and was mounted on a 60-foot (18 m) tower, making it similar in size to some of the first commercial wind farm turbines of the 1980s. However, the machine was only rated at 12 kW; it turned relatively slowly since it had 144 blades.
One Energy was founded in 2009 in Marshall, Minnesota. [4] In 2011, the company moved its office to Findlay, Ohio, where it installed a project for Cooper Farms in Van Wert, Ohio. [5] Since then, One Energy has continued to develop projects consisting of typically 1-3 wind turbines (each 1.5 MW) of on-site wind energy for industrial energy users.

Numerous wind energy projects have popped up, ready to produce thousands of megawatts of power. [121] [122] They include Legacy Renewable Energy Development's proposed $120 million tri-county project near Lake Erie, [123] the Buckeye Wind Project in Champaign County, [124] and the Northwest Ohio Wind Energy project in Grover Hill. [125] Wind ...
The following table lists offshore wind farm areas (by nameplate capacity) that are in various states development for the Outer Continental Shelf in U.S. territorial waters of the East Coast of the United States, [31] where a Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) wind energy area lease has been secured [32] [33] and have gained at least some ...
The Blue Creek Wind Farm spanning Paulding and Van Wert County became the largest wind farm in the U.S. state of Ohio at approximately 40,500 acres upon its completion in 2012. With a generating capacity of 304 megawatts (MW), it produces enough electricity to service the equivalent of about 76,000 homes.
When a turbine is mounted on a rooftop the building generally redirects wind over the roof and this can double the wind speed at the turbine. If the height of a rooftop mounted turbine tower is approximately 50% of the building height it is near the optimum for maximum wind energy and minimum wind turbulence.
