Absolutely correct fren. Those eyesores have decimated bird populations in Ca as well as other places, Now it seems no one wants to talk about it. Environmental laws to protect endangered species impacted businesses and private land owners for decades. Windmill farms and other green energy endeavors somehow get a pass and environmental concerns are ignored and the projects are fast tracked.

These projects get huge infusions of cash to get up and running - mostly subsidized with taxpayer money. But, very little money is there for maintenance. So, there are farms in disrepair with broken and idle windmills - which is good news for the birds. Windmills require upkeep. But, these geniuses grossly underestimated those costs. The average costs for maintenance can be just shy of $50K per year, per windmill. I wonder how many of those parts have to come from China? Then there is the cost of decommissioning a windmill once it reaches the end of its life. The costs of decommissioning a windmill can range from $250K to $500K each. Now do the math with an entire farm and you can easily see why there are farms with non functioning windmills that litter the landscape. Talk about being sold a load of bull crap.

Europe has had to face that reality recently because many of their windmills have hit their expiration much earlier than the 20 to 25 years that was first predicted. This reality is hitting them in the face while in the midst of economic challenges and fuel shortages. I wonder how many of the draconian measures that parts of Europe are trying to implement are simply due to the fact that they screwed up.

The green Nazis here in the States are trying to push us into the same situation - not only with wind, but also solar. The efficiency of the Chinese solar panels starts to drop off much quicker than what people were told. As with wind, solar also shows consistently that over time, the reality does not line up with the expectations. All of the cost/benefit calculations at that point are useless. There are municipalities and private enterprises, that after spending millions to go green, have had to go back onto the grid because the efficiency of their green energy production has decreased within a couple of years. They try to sue the green energy companies only to find out they no longer exist. What a racket.
