In the real world, not so much.

Get them up into the jet stream. That’ll do it.

I thought that windfarms were discontinued in Germany as not economically feasible since they broke down frequently and were costly to maintain and repair such that users of conventional power were subsidizing them via additional charges on their power bills. Is this the influence peddlers at work again?
