The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority has prepared a report on siting wind turbines on the Great Lakes (Erie and Ontario).

From the Summary:
“Based on the totality of this analysis, this concludes that Great Lakes Wind currently does not offer a unique, critical, or cost-effective contribution toward the achievement of New York State’s Climate Act goals beyond what existing, more cost-competitive programs are currently expected to deliver.”
