Seattle-based 3TIER, an independent provider of renewable energy assessment and power forecasting services, was recently recognized for its commercial achievement and contribution to the wind industry by the American Wind Energy Association's 2009 Awards. The honor went to 3TIER for the development of FirstLook, a free Web-based wind and solar energy prospecting tool.
‘It is an honor to have FirstLook recognized by the industry's premier wind association,’ says Kenneth Westrick, CEO and founder of 3TIER. ‘This intuitive and interactive tool was developed as part of REmapping the World, 3TIER's renewable energy resource mapping initiative, which was launched in March 2008 to address the biggest barrier to global renewable energy adoption – the lack of information.’
