Scotland’s green-obsessed left-separatist government has been left with egg on its face by revelations that dozens of gigantic onshore wind turbines are having to be hooked up to diesel generators, leaking thousands of litres of hydraulic oil into the countryside.
Scottish Power — led by a Spaniard, Ignacio Galan, and actually a subsidiary of Spanish firm Iberdrola — conceded that some 71 of its turbines had to be hooked up to diesel generators to keep them warm in December, according to the Sunday Mail, with a whistleblower telling the left-leaning newspaper that problems with the turbines are deep-seated.

Bttt
Enviro nuts scream aboutmpipelines, but are silent when it comes to windmills,leaking oil and hydronic all over the place and killing bird and aminals 24/7. Why aren’t they out protesting wind farms?
“hooked up to diesel generators to keep them warm in December”
What, they can’t generate thier own heat?
Does this issue translate to EVs I wonder? 🤔
Not to mention ruining folks view shed.
Because they're communists, same as the people burning down food production facilities. Destroying the "means of production".
Bah. That’s photoshop. /s

That’s photoshop too. /s
I used to be proud of my Scottish heritage. Now it controlling by some of the worst of the leftist a-holes on the planet.
Celebrate your enslavement.
.
they could probably be made to generate their own hear through solar panels on each pole...
hehehe
who am i kidding...
plug them in to something
I’d like to know how the wind turbines in Sweetwater TX did during the recent ice storm. If you zoom in on Google satellite, you can see that a lot of them have old or replacement blades sitting on the ground next to them.
That doesn’t explain the hundreds of “modern windmills” I have seen simply not moving.
Major wind turbine companies are losing billions. GE, Siemans are re-thinking. One would think they employed far-sighted execs who could have seen this.
Musk, too will need an alternative power source for Teslas but he’s likely already on it.
Just call Swiftboat Rear Admiral John F’ing Kerry for advice, he knows it all.
