Babson College installed a wind turbine on the school’s campus as a demonstration project. The college’s decision to complete the installation was based on a proposal created by a team of three graduate students and introduced through the Babson Energy and Environmental Club, a student led organization at the F.W. Olin Graduate School of Business.
Through the installation, Babson has joined the growing number of US colleges and universities that have chosen to develop their commitment to sustainable business practice through the use of renewable energy technologies and become the first in the greater Boston area to utilize wind power through an on campus installation.
SolarWrights, Inc. completed the installation for Babson. To watch a video featuring one of the company's previous installations featuring the same model turbine to be installed at Babson (Skystream 3.7), click here.
