When you account for the generator windings, the lightening cables in each blade and nacelle, and of course the transmission lines, its far more than 100 pounds. The Nacelle alone has 60 pounds.

Your secret is safe with me! I wont tell anyone that windmills have hundreds of pounds of copper in them!
