In an area about 40 miles north of Lansing there are hundreds of windmills. When we go by them on our annual trip up north to fly fish less than half are generating. Wonder how much more electricity could be being generated if the cost of all that land and all the turbines had gone into building a nuclear or NG generating plant?

Consumers just build a wind farm in Hillsdale County and they look to be operating at near 100 percent. I’ve also noticed an increase of trucks carrying the tower components traveling west on US-12 towards the Coldwater area, so they must have another project going in somewhere.
