Yep.. You're right there. This was just a rough calculation to try and get a look at the big picture of the expanse and cost of such a project.

Doing it for the whole country would be a monumental task.

The cost of wind towers was also an estimate. I should be able to get a better price on a Wind Tower/Generator tomorrow maybe
