Our town is in the midst of construction of a 1.5 MW wind turbine at our local high school. This is in addition to a 0.66 MW wind turbine at a local private school that has been operational since March 31, 2006.

However I have not heard of any local discussions concerning the additions of plug-in stations. We do have a high number of Prius so hopefully we'll see this same enthusiasm for plug-ins.
