    look how they try to build huge turbines so they can hoard and sell the electricity.Build a smaller one in your garden and you can have electricity of your own for FREE!

    those things are HUGE! wouldn’t it be better to put up more smaller types, at a similar cost?

    According to who you believe the world has reached “peak oil” or will reach it within our lifetimes, energy, goods and services are going to increase in cost unless we bite the bullet and follow a much more aggressive renewable energy policy here in the UK.

    Look at this process and ask yourself how much diesel fuel was REQUIRED for the transportation, construction of the footings, and erection of the turbine.Now imagine how difficult it would be if it were all done by hand without diesel powered machinery.We’d better start using the oil we have left for installation of renewable energy infrastructure because when oil is $1000 per barrel (and that day will come within 20 years), these turbines will be VERY EXPENSIVE to install!

    Nope – not if we were to use electricity generated from existing turbines rather than oil ;-)

    Saving 13000 tons of evil carbon every year…Sounds impressive and scary at the same time. What? 13000 tons of gas? that must be like half the worlds atmosphere or something. In reality though it is utterly insignificant. Human breath alone accounts for approx’ 6 MILLION tons every DAY. We are not told the truth about windmills and most other supposedly ‘green’ methods of power generation. They are products of a new political agenda that is going to cost us way more than we can afford…

    The interesting thing is that our government knows this but because the debate about ‘climate change’ is now apparently over, our great Scottish leader and his henchmen now feel they have a vote winning opportunity to commit the country to what will eventually prove to be a catastrophically expensive act of vandalism to our beautiful countryside. Most do not realise that this is one of the main factors behind our ever increasing energy bills. It is never reported by the BBC or seldomly discussed
