Pen windmill scrapped | DrumhellerMail

The long and complicated attempt by the Drumheller Institution to provide a portion of its own wind power came to an end last week as the windmill that towered over the facility was taken down. The experiment that began in 2009, with the lofty expectation the turbine would generate about 20 per cent of its power need at the site. From the get-go, it was plagued with problems. In May 2010, it was delayed in commissioning due to concerns over brake linings. In October 2012, there were issues with the batteries and inverter. To further complicate matters, Lorax, the US contractor that won the bidding process, dissolved before the project was commissioned.
