This is a seminar for all those who have pondered the new wind turbine at St. Olaf College . Come and hear Pete Malamen, an Ole alum and consulting engineer, as he gives an insider's view of the impressive machine. He will discuss the generator itself, the campus electrical system, how the wind turbine is tied in, the area electrical grid, and the economics of it all. There will be plenty of time for your questions, so come prepared to make this an interactive conversation!
