The first only utility-scale wind farm in Illinois is about an hour's drive west of us. It is called Mendota Hills Wind Farm, and they have 63 wind turbines. The height of the hub of each turbine is 213 feet. The rotors have a diameter of 171 feet, which means the total height of each turbine is 298.5 feet, which is about the height of a 30 story building. This farm produces enough power for about 15,000 homes. I think I would like to take a day-trip there to take some pictures. I think this is very close to Dixon, Il which is where Ronald Reagon grew up. That could be interesting too.
