“The answer is certainly not blowing in the wind…The amount of energy embedded in steel pylons, concrete footings, blades, wiring, magnets, land clearing and roads is more than a wind pylon would ever generate in its working life. Wind farms cannot generate electricity in a gentle zephyr or a gale, cannot operate continuously and optimistically operate at 20 per cent of nameplate capacity…Wind farms do not reduce human emissions of carbon dioxide; they increase emissions.” ~ Prof Ian Plimer, October 23, 2014.
Excellent analysis of the fantasy and fraud of wind farms.
