| Wind Farms and Property Values: Whats the connection?Trieste Associates recently assisted the Fenner Renewable Energy Education (FREE) Center in its release of Impacts of Windmill Visibility on Property Values in Madison County, a study conducted by Ben Hoen, a graduate student of the Bard Center for Environmental Policy at Bard College. Despite persistent claims that all wind farms adversely affect property values, this report found that property values were unaffected by the 2001 installation of a 20 turbine wind farm in Fenner, New York. |
