RENEW board member recognized for education work
From an article on WisInfo:
Jenny Heinzen, Lakeshore Technical College’s renewable energy instructor, recently received the first-ever educator award at the Fourth Annual Small Wind Conference in Stevens Point.
The award was one of two Small Wind Awards given for “enthusiasm, dedication, advocacy and contributions to the small wind industry.”
Besides teaching LTC’s renewable energy classes, Heinzen also manages LTC’s wind turbine and photovoltaic systems, which offset a portion of the campus’ electrical energy needs through wind and solar energy.
Heinzen serves on the Rural Energy Management Council’s citizen advisory council for the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection. She also serves on the RENEW Wisconsin Board of Directors. RENEW is a nonprofit organization that promotes clean energy tactics, including wind power.
