To make 1 large windmill / wind farm generator, it takes roughly 40,000 barrels of oil to make. The cost of money to make one wind generator will never be recovered in electricity sales over the life span of said generator. And most wind generators, at best can last 20 years, but find their way to landfills after 10.
