Powering The Grid

One of the many single turbines scattered around the Isles. At the last count we have 7 in the village

Good idea, does all your electricity come from wind power? Good shot.

When they turn these on you can feel the wind blow.

@lhart no we have an oil powered power station but wind is providing more each year and there is a plan for a massive wind farm.

@regularguy usually heat the wind blowing even without the turbines!! As a result the swishing of the turbines is usually not that noticeable unless you are up really close.
