TUMUT Council has applied for state and federal funding to install a monitoring system in Adelong to determine if there are sufficient air currents to install wind turbines and generate electricity. One year ago the Adelong Progress Association decided to investigate the possibilities of installing the alternative energy supply and yesterday member Norm Jones said slow but steady progress was being made. Mr Jones said $24,000 would be required to set up the initial monitors and a number of locations were in mind for the tests and subsequent turbine site.
