North Cheatham of Hood River has been elected to serve as vice
chair for Seattle-based Northwest Sustainable Energy for
Economic Development.
The organization has projects in four states which promote
sustainable energy through energy conservation and efficiency;
renewable energy outreach and education; and community-scale
development of wind and solar energy. Cheatham has previously
served as NWSEED treasurer.
Locally, NWSEED’s projects include three “Our Wind Coop” 10-kW
wind turbines in White Salmon and Goldendale. In these projects
NWSEED assisted with funding and technical support for
landowners who have installed wind generators to offset their
electricity bills. |
