The wind lobbyists don't have too because the Production Tax Credit helps to ensure projects that produce the most energy, where the wind blows the most often, are the ones that get built. Additionally the Production Tax Credit has incentivized the wind industry design much more efficient turbines that have average net capacity factors in the 40-50% range, and sometimes over 50%.
There are very few places where the wind always blows, and, not surprisingly, hardly anybody lives near those mostly unpleasant places.
Then it shouldn't matter to this author if those unpopulated "unpleasant places" are covered with wind farms, right?
I have a problem with these wind farms whether they are in unpopulated areas or not - if they’re all that and a bag of chips, then no taxpayer subsidies. I believe in developing the biggest bang for the buck. Scam is the shortest word that comes to mind to describe Wind Farms.
