With the use of wind power continuing to grow, it’s no surprise
that the tri-bladed turbines peppering an increasing swath of
the American landscape have become the supermodels of green
growth – the sky-swept arms and glistening towers appear tailor
made for the camera’s lens. But seldom is attention given to the
green cutting edge’s more hidden inner workings, and the tools
and technologies that make it all possible. Take the dual wind
turbine system recently put online in Gloucester, Massachusetts
just a few months back. For all its outward grace and power –
and at roughly 400 feet tall and 4-megawatts, there are plenty
of both – the system wouldn’t have been possible without a high-
tech data communications system provided by Portsmouth’s own TVC
Systems. TVC, which specializes in high-tech information control
systems designed to bolster energy efficiency and overall
performance, provided what project manager Adam Sargent calls
“communication architecture,” or the mechanisms necessary to tie
the dual turbin
