The City of Lincoln would utilize Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) funds to install at least one 10 kilowatt (kW) photovoltaic solar installation on a prominent city-owned building. The installation would be accompanied by educational information and instructive signage at the site which would feature real-time, user-friendly power generation, energy savings, and return on investment information on-line. EECBG funds would also be used to install a wind generator mounted on a traffic signal pole in an exposed and major urban intersection. The power generated would be connected to and used by a nearby public building. The capacity of the generator would not exceed 20kW.
