Remember that picture we had a few months back of a helicopter taking off of an enormous wind turbine? Yea, that 3.6MW behemoth today looks normal compared to this 6MW monster being installed in Germany. Apparently, it’s one of the two currently going up in the city of Hamburg. Huge — just huge.

    I’d like to see if the Kennedy clan will allow one of these off Martha’s Vineyard, put it in Ted back yard.

    Actually, we’ve got quite a few of these (on a smaller scale per turbine) dotting the landscape in Iowa – seems we’re #1 in corn production and if not already, soon to be #1 in wind energy. The only problem I see is building the transmission lines to get this power outta here to the consumers. Too much opposition already as to where, when, and how to set this up.
