Is it possible to erect a turbine on Monhegan?
In December 2008, MPPD met with a group of engineers to discuss the logistics of installing a wind turbine on the island. They reported that a turbine could get to the island by barge and be transported to the site on standard-sized trucks with minimal disruption to Monhegan roads. Although construction would need to take place during the summer or early fall in order to avoid high winds, the bulk of the work would be completed in just a few weeks.
