The Wind Industry is of great interest to Sumner County and its citizens.  The Sumner County Economic Development commission, in conjunction with partner agencies, has sponsored various seminars on wind farm related topics and organized several wind farm tours.  We are actively recruiting wind farm developers to come to our county and work with our landowners to harness this abundant resource.  In addition, we have been actively involved in supply chain workshops and wind manufacturing recruitment efforts.  If you are a manufacturing firm, site selector, or a wind farm developer interested in additional information regarding doing business in Sumner County; or a Sumner County landowner interested in wind farm development, please contact us at 620-326-8779 or by email at scedc@co.sumner.ks.us and we will be glad to assist you.
