Wind Energy – what a freakin’ scam foisted on us by major corporations! Wind energy does not save a single barrel of oil, nor is it profitable without government subsidy – from our pockets. Plus…these Turbines are not even made in America – all of them are imported! We Americans have been played for suckers….again!

Wind energy is growing at a rapid pace and many people are installing wind turbines at home as it helps in the generation of power. Though the installation is expensive, it is a long term investment. These turbines collect kinetic energy from the wind and convert it into electrical energy. These turbines do it efficiently and without polluting the environment. Transformer company, Pacific Crest Transformers has information on the wind industry and the role of transformers.

Things have changed in recent years. China is now the largest producer of wind energy, and their pace is still accelerating. I guess they don’t want to be as dependent on fossil fuels as the US in the future.

On the island of Maui (part of Hawaii) the is a huge wind farm that may power the whole island!

I invented a breakthrough source of energy, which contradicts the law of conservation of energy. I have a PROOF that there are electrodynamic phenomena which contradict the law of energy conservation. It will cost about $1200 to make a 6 kW generator in mass production. Value of the energy produced yearly about $5400. I am looking for $300 000 for a prototype and for $3M for patents.

@nomadnametab
you r rite. Just moved to west from central Texas. Went from a city of over 112,000 to less than 500 people. Beautiful mountains, wide open space. Not for the faint of heart. Only a select few could survive in the west.

This guy who claims to be offended by his neighbors ability to have wind machines on his property, maybe he refuse to have those Wind Turbines on his property, now that his neighbors are making money, he is pissed off he didnt jump on the wind Turbine train, and it left him…

Maybe, maybe not.
And please, don’t call me a bro :P

Thanks! We build those whirly gigs here in Pcola, FL.

when did you rednecks ever become interested in green tech, i though u idiots were too busy trying to put us blacks back into slavery.

drfoxcourt @ 3:51 am #

And I thought that nothing good came out of Texas ;-) Reap that wind!

midland is really bland scenery, but east of ft. stockton it is not so bad. if anyone reading this has never been in west texas, let me tell you, there is nothing like it. you have only one town over 10,000 people along I-10 it is impressive, if intimidating in its remoteness. drive from san antonio to el paso and you have covered 1000 km with a population of less than 50,000.

There may be so many of those turbines, but West Texas WILL benefit from the investment in wind energy. A lot of the towns that previously were dying will now find a new lease on life that’s cleaner and safer. Plus, the turbines are also, admittedly, so much fun to look at. ;-)

@mollydtt …and nothing looks worse in our skies than pollution:)
