Wind projects blended into one in northern Tippecanoe County

Updated details about an ambitious wind farm proposal for northern Tippecanoe County were presented to two dozen business and government leaders Tuesday.

"This is not just a wind farm," said Scott Zigmond, vice president of sales and marketing for Performance Services. The firm is designing and plans to build the 60-turbine, 100-megawatt alternative energy project in conjunction with Purdue University.

"We think it's a state project," he said. "This is an inclusive project with research lab capabilities for Purdue University and utility companies."
