Wake ★★★★★ (4034)	It is loony tunes ideas like this that is killing everyone's support for the renewable energy business. The BEST we have ever done is a 10% increase in power production with hundreds of acres of wind and solar farms. 5% is a GOOD year.

And how much does it cost to service hundreds of acres of windmills? Wind direction changes all the time. The blades follow wind direction. That requires lots of lubricant. That is expensive. We'll see what they do with millions of windmills sitting there after their service lives end. Edited on 05-03-2019 00:09

It is considered permanent lubrication for the life of the machine. The Parrot Killer Debunked in my sig. - tmiddles Google keeps track of paranoid talk and i'm not on their list.
