Wind Energy Integration.
Chicagoland Wind Council 20th Meeting
The objective of the Chicagoland Wind Council (CWC) is to help companies develop a strategic plan for
finding new customers or develop products in the wind turbine market.
The first project for the CWC was to help each participating company develop a Strategic Plan that would guide
the company's actions as it enters or expands its customers in the wind supply chain. The Plan would
contribute to each company efforts to attend or exhibit in some form at the 2010 AWEA show in Dallas.
