Gust
🔋Our Power, Our Planet 🌎
This Earth Day, get wind of how Gust builds climate resilience by sustainably powering our community! 💨
When the wind blows, a device called an anemometer measures:
🧭 wind direction - turning Gust to orient the blades into the wind
🏁 wind speed - telling Gust when to start (or stop) spinning
This maximizes wind capture, improves efficiency, and increases the clean power generated for Port Milwaukee’s headquarters and our homes.🔋
Keep spinning, Gust!🌀

2️⃣ Building the Tower 2️⃣
Going up! ⬆️ With a strong base in place, you can start building the tall tower that makes a wind turbine stand proud. 🛠️
Gust’s tower is made of steel and had three sections that were assembled on site at Port Milwaukee. 🏗️ Inside the tower are power cables that carry the electricity Gust generates to a transformer, which then connects to the power grid. 🔌
