WOODSTOCK – A Massachusetts wind energy developer will hold an informational meeting at 6 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 19, on its proposed small, commercial wind power project on Spruce Mountain.

The meeting in the Woodstock Town Hall will provide answers to residents’ questions regarding the Patriot Renewables LLC project, according to Todd Presson, the Quincy, Mass., company’s director of wind energy development.

Patriot Renewables is in the process of erecting a meteorological tower on Spruce Mountain to measure winds.

The company, which employs five people, is a renewable energy subsidiary of civil and marine contracting firm Jay Cashman Inc., also of Quincy, which employs more than 1,000 people worldwide, according to its Web site.

“We will talk about our potential project in Woodstock and give people an idea of the size of the project,” Presson said by phone Wednesday in Quincy. “We’re trying to be upfront about it.”

He estimated that the project would involve erecting five to seven wind turbines on Spruce Mountain, which is slightly larger than Patriot Renewables Beaver Ridge Wind Power project in Freedom. At that site, the company installed three wind turbines that are now operating, Presson said.

In July, Patriot Renewables met with Woodstock selectmen regarding the feasibility of a wind-generating project using 20 to 25 towers, according to a story in the Bethel Citizen by reporter Alison Aloisio.

The company has also been meeting with Carthage representatives to try to put several wind turbines on Saddleback Mountain in that town. That project, like the Woodstock one, is in the early stages of development.

In two area newspapers, Patriots Renewables has also advertised its interests in partnering and providing financing for early- and mid-stage wind projects, and is seeking 50-or-more-acre plots of land with an elevation of at least 1,000 feet on which to build wind-power projects.

Currently, the company is also working through the process of erecting about 100 or more turbines offshore in the Buzzards Bay area of southeastern Massachusetts.

Although its initial focus has been offshore, Presson said, “We believe there are a number of good sites in western Maine.”
