Tell me again how wind power is so clean, efficient, and reliable?

Wind and solar already have to be subsidized. They cost even more if they are run properly, and they cost even more than that if you try and mitigate the environmental damage they cause.
Natural gas on the other hand produces so much energy so inexpensively that we can afford to sell cheap electricity and still have money left over to mitigate any environmental effects.
The only benefit of “renewables” is that they enrich politicians and their friends.

Control power is pretty important. Today's Siemens and RS Logix require 24VDC, 120VAC, and 480V 3 phase, to run the controls of a windmill or any other such device. By code you can't run the control voltage transformer legs off of the windmill or any other such devices, to operate the controls or safety circuits of the same.
Think about it.

"Whatever the reasons, having to use diesel generators to de-ice faulty turbines is environmental madness. This level of dishonesty the immutable laws of physics cuts to the very core of the SNP and Green Government where their rhetoric on net zero is very different from the reality."
Fixed it.

Personally, I use 5W-30 in the winter, but maybe the pointy heads in Scotland never heard of that viscosity.

What’s really funny is the “whistleblower” is not angry about the hypocrisy of it all, but rather, is whining the wind farms should be even more “green.”

You cannot dispatch “green power”. Period.
It’s the most retarded thinking imaginable.

Then these folks go out and brag about how great they are doing with all this wind power. What a joke.
