the sad this is for them to route that power to the big cites, they have to go through a wildlife preserve. the project is at a standstill.
i think they need to come up with one that could be mounted on a roof.
most city ordanances prohibit the ones like vic posted.  |
They put up some windmills in Ohio and are doing studies on adding more. There are concerns for our migrating bird population though, and it costs quite a lot just to figure where the birds will be least affected and where the windmills will still be efficient.
So far that's the snag. Where there is good wind, there are too many birds.
And it's unlikely any power company could spend that kind of money - or have room for, even - for solar panels for each customer.
