Ohio soon will be seeing its first wind farms, as power companies start working toward alternative energy goals set up in state law two years ago. The state's power siting board gave the green light to three wind farms - two in Hardin County and one in Champaign County. That wind farm will be developed by Everpower Wind Holdings, and spokesman Michael Spearschneider says it will involve 70 wind turbines on 9-thousand acres of farmland an hour west of Columbus. Wind farm okayed cut 2 :15 "be under construction" It's estimated the turbines would generate enough electricity to power around 40-thousand homes. Ohio utilities are expected to get 12-and-a-half percent of their electricity from alternative and renewable energy sources by 2025.
