Martha's Vineyard Wind Energy Info Site
The Martha's Vineyard Wind Energy Info Site is an informal website designed to present information
on net metering, power assignment, and large scale wind turbines on Martha's Vineyard.  

The Green Communities Act of 2008, through net metering and power assignment, has created
tremendous opportunities for the Vineyard - this website will attempt to present some information on
how the net metering and power assignment of electricity generated by wind turbines could help schools,
farms, and towns on the Island.
