Wind Farms Archives

I'd like to know how you feel about them, are they a good idea or do you hate them? please leave a little detail as to why you like them and why you don't. thank you :)

What is your opinion on wind farms?

Do you think it is worth it to use wind power technology to generate electricity if it means we have to "insteall eye sores" that ruin our view of the landscape?

Will wind farms cause environmental problems?

A windmill, and windfarm, takes energy out of the wind and converts it to electricity. Over time, and after lots of years of windfarms, we could have taken enough energy out the wind that winds would slow down around the planet. What do you think will happen?

(NOTE: back in the 1800's they thought there was infinite coal and oil and never imagined environmental issues with burning it, so this question may be a real problem).

Doing a project for school, help!

Recently hugh wind farms are being constructed around my area of Texas. Right now they seem to me like huge works of art but the appeal may wear off. How do you feel about them?

Or, instead of using solar heat, why not use the heat from volcanos, or underground lava streams to create electricity? Would it be possible? I've often wondered this.

I need to know the social benefits and problems, Economic benefits and problems, and Environmental benefits and problems with offshore and onshore wind farms. Thanks

Are wind farms classed as human activity?

Well I'm just wondering if wind farms are classed as human activity?
I personanlly think they are but they're kind of built and left aren't they?
Is it still classed as a human ''activity'' then?

I thought I'd check before I write that it's a human activity found on coasts in my homework. XD

I know people are opposed to some, but have any projects actually been cancelled purely because locals didn't want them?

How many wind farms are in Pa?

How many Wind Farms are in the United States today?

Only need a number please.

What is the average ROI for Wind Farms?

I was curious how profitable a wind farm may actually be in comparison to coal. What is the pay back period, maintenance costs, etc. Assume ideal wind conditions, 30 year life, and industrial size turbines. Also, what is the most efficient spacing? I read somewhere it's 1km.

Thanks :-)
