Speaking of insane liberal minds (redundant), my wife’s friend travels through Texas often for business and she has a fear of traveling between long stretches of windfarms like the one she talks about near Sweetwater Texas. She says that it really scares her. Pretty ironic.
The windfarm stretches for what seems like a hundred miles, as far into the horizon as you can see. We drove through it last summer coming from Austin on our way to Amarillo. It is massive in scope. A few years ago, we drove through California’s biggest windfarm near Livermore, and it is nothing compared to the one in Northwest Texas. I’m guessing that everyone of the turbines was manufactured in China. In between the windmills were lots of oil rigs and jacks. My guess, all of it made and employed by Americans.
” I’m guessing that everyone of the turbines was manufactured in China.”
Last year 72% of wind turbine components were made in US. Roscoe Wind Complex used four vendors but I don’t have a breakdown.
