In step with the other countries tapping the power of winds, South American country, Argentina also intends to produce massive wind power turbines. It is using some of the biggest generators with de Eolis-15, that has 1,5 megawatts of power and almost 80 meters tall. Río Negro and Neuquén, two of the southeast provinces in Argentina, along with the Science and Technology Department from Cutral-Có and Plaza Huincul have joined each other to develop the wind turbine Eolis-15. Designed by Invap to make the most of high speed winds, Rio Negro is the daddy of this multi-million project. Estimated to cost no less than 15 millions dollars, this project will see day light in three years time. Intended to export wind energy, there seems to a chance to see these turbines in Chubut, Santa Cruz, and Tierra del Fuego too. Yeah you read it correct, exporting wind energy is the next big eco-venture as the demand for turbines around the word is high. However, at least this whole project will nourish Argentina, if not anything else.
