The California Wind Energy Collaborative supports the development of safe, reliable, environmentally sound, and affordable wind electric generation capacity within the state of California. To fulfill this mission, the Collaborative manages a focused, statewide program of scientific research, technology development & deployment, and technical transfer and outreach. These efforts are conducted in close cooperation with industry, state and federal agencies, and other institutions to maximize the benefits of wind energy resources in California for its citizens. The Collaborative is a partnership between the University of California and the California Energy Commission, established in February 2002. This report summarizes the activities and deliverables for the period from January 2008 through June 2009.
