"Seward Wind Energy"

Renewable energy sources are a big thing in Alaska, where the cost of energy is so high, and is compounded by long, harsh winters.

People are really trying to convert their current energy to renewable sources that cost less in the long run.

Channel 2 has run many stories about what people are experimenting and going with, and the challenges they are facing as they pioneer in new energy directions.

This is the story of a couple trying to link their new wind turbine to the energy grid, but are facing issues with the city of Seward allowing them to do so.

Reporter Lori Tipton and I visited the couple and the Seward City Manager to have a better understanding of the situation. This story aired in May of this year.
