Mac, my big issue with wind turbines is their inefficiency and low power density, also the siting which tends to be in places of great natural beauty. I look out of my window towards the Durham Fells and "blot on the landscape" fits exactly ! Also I notice that many of them are still. The "best" schemes have them sited off-shore. There have been proposals to build windfarms in National Parks and similar places - now that is a price NOT worth paying !
I have a suggestion - why not build huge windfarms in London and the Home Counties instead. Perhaps add a couple of nuclear power stations there also.
