Wind energy development

Floyd County is ideal for wind development. It is located in what many call the wind corridor of the United States, which stretches from the Panhandle of Texas north into Minnesota, including some of the most wind-rich states in the country. Reasons include the quality of wind in the region, the possibilities of connecting into two different electric grid systems, and the scheduled transmission line build-out in the area.
