WindConnect
WindConnect represents a set of services. Bill Hobbs relates1 that RMT, Inc. offers expertise with wind-energy projects in design and construction, as well as Site Development Support, Environmental Compliance & Permitting, and Transmission Interconnection. RMT has been involved in more than 30 U.S. wind-power projects — in New York, California, Washington, New Mexico and Wisconsin — and the company claims that they can shorten time to project delivery.
One industry harmed by forestalling of the Energy Bill in the Senate is U.S. wind energy, which has been growing rapidly, and is one of the above ground energy sources that needs to grow even more to help mitigate carbon emissions from electric power generation. Such efforts exemplify fulfilling your RPS (Renewable energy Portfolio Standard), for which exist state-by-state mandates, whereas a federal mandate keeps meeting defeat in the Senate from filthy coal interests.

WindConnect gets involved in measuring wind speeds, designing projects and assessing their environmental impact, along with meeting with land owners, contracting with construction crews and building access roads, said Frank Greb, WindConnect vice president and general manager. “When the business started in 1999, the primary focus was building substations and helping developers connect their wind facilities to the electric grid; therein, the WindConnect name. We have grown way beyond that,” Greb said.
