You would think the blades could be shredded and a use found for the result.

I think they are made from radioactive asbestos fiberglass nano-tubes injected with COVID-19 variants and the kind of epoxy glue that meth-heads get high on....so only solution is to bury like its toxic waste...

Now why on Earth would mods have removed my post? Was it offensive to see turbine blades being buried????

I think they're in the process of breaking down the fiberglass and such of the windmill blades so they can be recycled. But it's still a way off to making the process feasible. Plus, I really doubt the feasibility of windmill use anyway. They don't produce much power and have too many moving parts to break down.
Solar, though, I think will work -- at least in the south. But only as long as we do it at the individual level and not at the government level where they force utilities to use solar even when it's not going to work -- all while everybody focuses on the red tape of the regulations and not on maximizing efficiency. If you do it yourself you're more liable to customize the system for your specific needs and get nice throughput -- without making the government cronies rich on the façade of helping us out but not really.

Fiberglass? Make Corvette bodies.

It’s glass and epoxy.
Burn one; remelt and reuse the other.

Wind turbine blades are manufactures from carbon fiber, which really can’t be recycled. Old turbine blades end up being buried in landfills.
