Tell us about your experience with alternative energy:
I am Director of School Facilities. Our High School installed a 1.8 kw windmill atop a 40' hinged tower in June 2007 for program and renewable energy studies. We are the only operating windmill in the lower Hudson Valley, 30 miles north of NYC
What excites you about this campaign?
To be able to be a help in rolling out more wind projects in NY
What do you want to do to help?
Whatever I can- you tell me. We can arrange to have politicians, media, taxpayers, see our operating windmill at our school.

Haven't been able to get a response from the pickens team on an idea. Maybe you have some pull some where. Assuming the new wind farm is on hold, why not setup a fund to add a windmill to an existing wind farm ? I would contribute to it. My original reason for joining was to increase the use of wind energy.
There are dozens of schools in California, Oklahoma, Texas and soon to be Florida using CNG school buses. They are better for several reasons. 1) Fuel is cheaper (budget benefit) 2) Emissions are cleaner (kids health benefit) 3) Domestic (economic benefit).
We have a repower option if your buses are using an International DT466 engine. If you can have your fleet manager contact me I will be happy to analyze your situation, we are negotiating with a company in New Jersey so it looks like we may be in your neck of the woods anyway so the more business the lower our cost of maintenance.
Hi Ed. I'm glad to see you on here and that you volunteered to be the district leader. I'm way too busy in my masters program right now to take on this responsibility. Plus you being an engineer makes this seem like it's a lot more up your alley. So I'm glad we have a good DL now! Welcome!

Have you considered CNG school buses?
We can provide you any info you need, and we can partner with you if it makes sense.
