Homewood Press Wind Turbine
A Skystream 3.7 wind turbine
was installed at Homewood Press in Toledo, Ohio on December 9, 2008.
The turbine is installed on a
60' monopole tower. It provides a portion of the power
needed for Homewood's new building, which was designed to be energy
efficient.
Alternative energy is one of
the many environmental steps Homewood Press has taken over the past
seven years. In addition to recycling paper and inks, the company
has also pursued numerous industry certifications. Homewood is the
only printer in the area to be certified by the
Forest Stewardship
Council (FSC),
The Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC,
Sustainable
Forestry Initiative (SFI) and the
Sustainable
Green Printing Partnership (SGP).
