'The output of a wind turbine depends on the turbine's size and the wind's speed through the rotor. Wind turbines manufactured today have power ratings ranging from 250 watts to 7 MW. An onshore wind turbine with a capacity of 2.5 MW can produce more than 6 million kWh in a year - enough to supply 1,500 average EU households with electricity.'

hardly enough to power our future?

more like a nominal amount only?

Hi Aim

Every bit helps ... and diversity is the key imo.

There are no silver bullets coming over the horizon imo.

Besides, 60 turbines for a decent sized wind farm powers up 60 x 1500 homes, which isnt too shabby.
