Five small wind turbines are among energy-conscious features of the new Southeast Wyoming Welcome Center dedicated 12 October 2012.
Wyoming Governor Matt Mead, along with other state officials, hosted a ribbon cutting ceremony at the 27,000 square foot, $12 million project, which houses a visitor welcome center, rest area facilities and Wyoming Office of Tourism offices. The Skystream 3.7 wind turbines, manufactured by Southwest Windpower, are mounted on 45-foot-high towers. The new facility also includes a ground source heat pump, daylight harvesting and other energy conserving features.
