With the current gas crisis, and a period without wind, electricity prices went through the roof.
Today the wind is back, covering 80% of our electricity production. The price for electricity dropped to less than half compared to yesterday.
These 3 are from 2009 and still deliver almost 4 MW each.

This picture was taken from a moving Intercity Train. I was travelling from Leeds back to London. The train was flashing through the Engish Countryside when I noticed this wind farm.
Thanks for visiting.....

when you travel from Puttgarden /Fehmarn (Germany) to Roedbyhavn (Denmark) by ferry :-))
Fährt man mit der Scandlines - Fähre von Fehmarn nach Roedby (Dänemark) sieht man als erstes die vielen, vielen Windkrafträder vor Dänemarks Küste!
On the road from Alpine to Fort Davis, Texas . La Verne Noyes, founder of Aermotor Windmill Company, had hired engineer Thomas O. Perry for a different job but saw the potential of the all-metal windpump developed by Perry. The first Aermotor was sold in 1888, with 24 windmills in total being sold in the first year. Aermotor soon became a strong competitor among its contemporaries selling over 20,000 of its windmills by 1892. Noyes died in 1919. He left the Aermotor Company to a tax paying trust, with 48 colleges and universities as beneficiaries.
