The sooner they can tear them down: Britain’s wind farms are wearing out far more rapidly than previously thought, making them more expensive as a result, according to an authoritative new study.

Just another feature of the great scam. The faster they wear out, the faster the Greenie Grifters can re-latch onto the public teat for another round of shovelling money off the truck to replace them.
“…The extra cost is likely to be passed on to households, which already pay about £1 billion a year in a consumer subsidy…”
Dumb Limeys. If they’d have only planted money trees like all the brilliant Liberal voters in Ontario.
But they made politically connected lefties really rich. So, like, what’s your point??
And don’t forget that poor rare bird: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/environment/10146081/Twitchers-flocking-to-see-rare-bird-saw-it-killed-by-wind-turbine.html
Don’t tear them down, …yet.
Round up the people who pushed so hard to force them on us and lash them live to the blades until the birds that are victims of them too, pick the flesh from the drying bones.
Call it SKY BLADING and we could help defray the cost with live webcams on these miscreants.
Skyblading
Oz, Awesome, are there really enough of them for all those idiots? I suppose they can be reused.
I have a refinement.
Tie them to a pole located so that when the fan turns just so in the wind the lowest tip of the blade will be about 1 cm above the shoulder. We can bet on how far it tosses their heads.
I concur.
Gear driven auto loaders for 1 french haircut, each quarter cycle, tip speed of approximately 200 mph,
should make great modern TV.
Couldn’t be much more gross than the current stuff.
Retributive courts, all who imposed their will on others to ensure this massive waste of public treasure, destruction of natural assets and damage to the worlds poor,be judged and fed to the idols of their foul anti-humanist religion.
Makes a great vision, however I see potential for some such scenario evolving.
Last time the elites tried wars, witch trials and FUD, to divert attention from their banditry.
The comedy, in a dark sense only, is the government institutions developed over decades to protect the public from irrational enthusiasms, are the very creators, drivers and protectors of this mass hysteria over weather.
These watchdogs are either rabid,intoxicated or delusional.
Time to give them all pink slips of joy.
However they will never voluntarily leave the trough, hence mob backlash may well become the future.
Let us not get carried away. The article is from December 2012.
Christopher Booker in today’s Telegraph.
“Last week, when I said that Prof David MacKay, the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC)’s chief scientific adviser, had not been able to counter a study by Prof Gordon Hughes, formerly the World Bank’s senior energy adviser, showing that over the years the efficiency of these turbines declines dramatically, I’m afraid I had been misinformed. Prof MacKay could scarcely have afforded to let such a damaging charge pass unchallenged; and in fact he has published a paper claiming that Hughes’s conclusions were “spurious”.
He did accept from Hughes’s data that wear and tear does gradually reduce the efficiency of wind turbines. But his own computer modelling suggested that the reduction was not as drastic as Hughes concluded.”

Strange how fake crises can be staged and manipulated fairly quickly
to get billions of taxes placed on the ordinary people while the so
called “benefits” flow to politicians friends/rent seeking scamsters.
The speed involved in such “events” doesn’t seem the same when it becomes
a simple matter of loading up the crooks and “processing them at the jails.
On a more practical note, plasma cutters are getting really cheap these days. So when a 300 foot bird mincer falls down in your back 40, it’ll be easier to cut up and haul off.
I foresee a profitable business on the horizon: The Phantom’s custom windmill felling and dismemberment corporation. Our motto: ” the bigger they are, the harder they fall”.
