Yeah, uphill, into a storage tank then to be drawn on to turn a turbine when wind drops.

It's a REALLY slow slope.

That is surprising that West Texas would be without wind. My Mother was raised in Odessa and still plants the horrible sage brush and other crappy West Texas plants in her garden. Every time I have been out there it was like being in a wind tunnel. Of course I think the panhandle is worse in that regard.

I’ve walked many such rows with hoe in hand. That was a lifetime ago, though. :)
