About GenWy Wind

Hear what community members are saying about the benefits of wind farms

While there are plenty of places where the winds blow strong and steady, only a few have the fortunate combination of geographical and man-made factors that come together to create a natural fit for a wind farm project. The GenWy Wind project area is one of these places.

Since November 2004, the developer of GenWy Wind, First Wind, has been analyzing the area’s wind resource, meeting with residents and town officials, and conducting outreach with local and state environmental organizations to ensure that the GenWy Wind project maximizes economic benefits to the area while keeping upstate New York open.

GenWy Wind is proud to be working with the people of Genesee and Wyoming counties to bring clean, responsible wind development to the area.
