• How would you like your very own take-it-home apply-it-yourself wind power generator? (yankodesign.com)
• The production tax credit gives wind power investors a 10-year subsidy on a wind farm's output that's roughly equivalent to 30 percent of a project's original cost. (startribune.com)
• The tax credit has existed, off and on, for two decades, helping to build a wind power industry that powers more than 13 million U.S. homes. (startribune.com)
