Ever wonder how those spinning wind turbines are actually tested for safety? Before a turbine can be deployed in Massachusetts, it must meet strict international safety and design standards. Come join us for an exclusive tour of the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center’s Wind Technology Testing Center. In this tour, we will have the opportunity to see first-hand the blade-testing wind rooms (that tests blades up to 90 meters in length!), as well as to meet and ask questions of the center’s staff.

Transportation to testing facility will be provided by MITEI
