Yes thats right, Wind as a source of energy is a failure.
Just the area of land needed makes it physically impossible, yet the idiots do not grasp that fact.
If 20% of our nations electricity is supplied by wind turbines that means 20% of our power will be the amount that is unreliable, intermittent, unpredictable. If I can think of this than those who promote wind energy know this (I am overly generous). We must assume everyone who promotes wind energy (as well as green energy) finds it acceptable that we can have a 20% shortage of power during a crucial emergency or national disaster. A national emergency could be a state of war on a scale much larger than the current wars.

Con Ed had to generate some 13,500 megawatts to meet New York Citys air conditioning and other electricity needs during the recent July heat wave. The 600-turbine Roscoe wind farm blankets 100,000 Texas acres to generate 780 MW at full capacity. That means NYC would need a wind farm 1.6 times the size of Connecticut (5 million acres or 2 million hectares), if the turbines are running at an average 30% of capacity. But during the heat wave, theres barely a breeze.
