My understanding is that it is real-time energy all the time. Nothing is stored. On top of that, when the blade turbines don't have enough wind to turn them, they rely on electricity to turn them. How crazy is that? Plus, they are an eyesore. Learn more about turbines at Wind Action

These access roads need to be kept cleared during the winter so that the turbines can be checked on when needed. So a snow plow has to go out and clear the access road each time it snows. The generator is on the left.

Ah, but millions of our ‘stimulus’ money has gone for the manufacturing of these behemoths - to factories in China!

Silly me, I thought that money was to create jobs in America.

And then they have to be shipped across the ocean. Those things are humongous...that must be quite a bill - and a massive amount on energy for such shipping.

All a massive scam.

The Washington pols have been playing footsie under the table with China for decades now. And alGora is a master player. I'd like to see him go down but if there is a real investigation and heads start to roll - re the phony data on climate control - he'll throw everyone else under the buss. I just want to live long enough to see him get his just deserts. Evil personified.
