The National Wind Technology Center, located at the foot
of the Rocky Mountains near Boulder, Colorado, is a
world-class research facility managed by the National
Renewable Energy Laboratory for the U.S. Department of Energy.
NWTC researchers work with members of the wind energy industry
to advance wind power technologies that lower the cost of wind
energy through research and development of state-of-the-art
wind turbine designs.
