yes they do, the average lifespan of a coal fire power station is 35 to 50 years from memory and a wind turbine 20.
Not, that that means a lot.
Here is an Australian one shutting up shop.
Note, the company says it will make NO difference when it finishes - because they have a gas turbine. Interesting statement.
Note also that Esperance wants to keep them going to 'appear' green - they aren't alone in that one.
