On Monday, February 1, SAGE general manager Joseph McNeil, Jr. joined Doug Hamilton on Prairie Public News’ Main Street program to discuss the development of the Anpetu Wi wind farm at Standing Rock.
“What makes this project really great is that the location we’ve selected here is roughly 45-55% wind capacity, which means that these turbines are going to be blowing 50% of the day during a 24 hour period,” McNeil said.
The Anpetu Wi wind farm needs your support
Anpetu Wi (“morning light”) will be the single largest revenue source for Standing Rock, which we plan to reinvest into future projects and Standing Rock as a whole. We need your support to ensure this wind farm remains owned and operated by the people of Standing Rock for generations to come.
Please share and support.
$473,016 raised toward our goal
Funding for Anpetu Wi will be used to complete pre-development studies, operationalize the SAGE Development Authority management organization, and prepare for full project development in order to make the wind farm a reality for Standing Rock, as a critical step toward self-determination, now and into the future.
