Wind power is the fastest growing renewable energy technology in the world. More locally, wind is the most abundant renewable energy source on Cape Cod and the Islands. Below is a wind resource map, showing the degree of wind around Massachusetts:

Self-Reliance believes that the development of clean, local energy sources is imperative to sustainable growth on a community level as well as on a global level. Wind power may be harnessed on land and off-shore. Many European countries have been implementing wind power both on-shore and off.
We invite you to explore this section of our site to learn more about municipal-scale wind as well as home-scale wind (including our guide to deciding if small wind is right for your renewable energy needs).
