Pipestone, MN - October 29, 2012 (Investorideas.com renewable energy newswire) Juhl Wind, Inc. (
OTCBB: JUHL),
the Leader in Community Wind Power is pleased to announce that on
Monday, October 29 th at 2:00 PM, the Obama Campaign will be holding a
press conference at the Operations Headquarters of Juhl Wind, Inc.
located at 996 190 th Avenue in Woodstock MN.
On Monday, October 29 th, former House Minority Leader Matthew
Entenza will join Juhl Wind VP of Project Development Corey Juhl, VP of
Operations Tyler Juhl and Juhl Wind President John Mitola to stress the
importance of the extension of the Renewable Energy Federal Production
Tax Credit (PTC) and President Obama's unwavering support of the clean
energy sector.
"In my over 25 years in the energy business, I have never seen a
more balanced approach to our nation's energy strategy than the Obama
administration's, "stated John Mitola, President of Juhl Wind. "We are
very pleased to welcome Mr. Entenza to the Juhl Wind headquarters to
further underscore the need for continued support of Renewable Energy, a
critical component of our domestic renewable energy policy and a
creator of new domestic job opportunities. We are proud of President
Obama's strong ongoing support of the Renewable Energy industry and the
need to continue to invest in our clean energy future. For anyone to
solely attack the Renewable Energy PTC as a subsidy, they are simply
ignoring the hundreds of billions of dollars in subsidies that have been
provided to the nuclear, coal, gas and oil industries for decades and
continue to this today – and, seemingly are never questioned."
Corey Juhl, Juhl Wind's VP of Project Development added "We, and
several other companies, have argued for Congress to immediately pass
legislation to continue the Production Tax Credit for Renewable Energy
so we can continue to develop projects that boost the economies of rural
America and create real, sustainable jobs."
According to a report published on October 17 th , 2012 by the
American Wind Energy Association ( " AWEA " ), 2012 has been a record
year for the development of wind power within the United States. The
U.S. wind industry has surpassed 50,000 megawatts of electrical power
generation capacity, with a total of 4,728 megawatts added this year
alone and another 8,430 megawatts in active development throughout 29
states and Puerto Rico.
In addition, AWEA's U.S. Wind Industry Third Quarter 2012 Market
Report found that; "the third quarter alone saw the installation of
1,833 megawatts of wind power across 15 states. The top adopter of new
installations during the third quarter was Kansas, followed closely
behind by Oregon, Texas, Oklahoma, and Nevada. With more than 40,000
wind turbines supplying 51,630 megawatts of renewable energy, the U.S.
is now capable of powering some 13 million homes with wind energy alone.
That's the equivalent of all of the homes in Michigan, Ohio, Iowa,
Colorado, and Nevada. "
