But, where so <br />all these options fit into Roseville 9 s plan for the future? Visit the website for the US <br />Department of Energy — Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy — State Energy <br />Alternatives for Minnesota at http:llappsi.eere.energy.gov/ states /alternatives /resources_mn.cfm. <br />Policy /Goal To be responsive to alternative options. <br />Details /Action Research and investigate all possible alternatives and take <br />advantage of any savings possibilities. Do not rule any alternatives <br />out until fully researched. There are always new technologies <br />being developed. For instance, there is a new wind turbine called . <br />Natura Levo. It is an interesting concept wind turbine that could <br />solve all the problems of conventional wind turbines. It's small, <br />beautiful, and quiet and it catches winds from all directions. The <br />conceptual wind turbine was designed by Laura Sink from the Art <br />Institute of Pittsburgh. It can be installed on any structure, from a <br />telephone pole or on a house or building. <br />Cost <br />Timeline <br />Responsible <br />Staff All <br />Natura Levo wind Turbine <br />17 <br />
