westvirginia Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 It's stuff like this windmill that makes me believe even more that if not for gov't, we'd be much further on the whole "clean energy" front. Their regulation of the power companies made it so that perch who is way the hell out in east bumble pays the same for his electricity as does someone living right beside the plant. Of course there's no way to prove it, but I do think if folks had more trouble getting power from the power company it would have been more feasible to do something like this 20/30/50 years ago.

Avernus Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 I always wondered if they could put solar panels on the turbines to maximize the space... but I'm not sure it would be very profitable... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
