Purchased wind energy

Yes. He has a letter from the power company estimating the transmission losses. However, there should be no generation losses. I think he has a valid point. When Energy Star calculates the performance ratings methodology for incorporating source energy use for electricity, they estimate the efficiency of the boiler, turbine, etc, and then calculate how much fuel is required to produce that electricity. Well, if the fuel is wind, and they're buying all of their electricity from a wind farm, the only source energy losses should be transmission losses. After I thought about it more last Friday, I recommended that he write a letter to Energy Star. I think it's a glitch in their system. I'll let you know how it turns out.
