I recall an article about ranchers with plenty of wind blowing around putting turbines up. They get extra income, nothing much happens to the land. The wind is coming, so you may as well use it.It's not as if we're going 100% wind. But if you get a %age of the energy coming from wind that's blowing around anyway in this manner, that's all that matters. What if they generate enough extra load that it equals one new power plant? Good enough to me. I think some of us have a problem with the all or nothing scenario. Like the don't build an LRT in my city because it wont' take 100% of the cars off the road. Rediculous. Percentages of this or that will get you somewhere. |
