Welcome to the wind turbine graveyard

Welcome to the wind turbine graveyard
“Welcome to the wind turbine graveyard. It stretches a hundred meters { 328 feet} from a bend in the North Platte River in Casper, Wyoming.

California, Colorado, Kansas, and many other states are doing the same thing, the fiberglass blades will never deteriorate { not biodegradables }.

Between last September and this March, it will become the final resting place for 1,000 fiberglass turbine blades.

These blades, which have reached the end of their 25-year working lives, come from three wind farms in the north-western US state. Each will be cut into three, then the pieces will be stacked and buried.

Turbines from the first great 1990s wave of wind power are reaching the end of their life expectancy today. About two gigawatts worth of turbines will be refitted in 2019 and 2020. And disposing of them in an environmentally-friendly way is a growing problem.

This cost taxpayers $200,000 or more per unit or 200 million total for the 1000 blades to have them transported and decommissioned.

It’s time to stop the madness, Wind mills are not the answer.

Here is your “clean energy!”
