The Texas $1.5 billion wind farm -- a US-China joint venture paid for in part by Chinese banks -- will be built not with turbines from usual suspects GE or Vestas, but with Chinese-made machines from a year-old company called A-Power.
Needless to say, most of the project's green jobs will be created in China. And don't shoot the messenger, but it's hoping to secure 30 percent, or $450 million, of its financing from, yes, U.S. stimulus funds.
its too bad wind energy is soo expensive if it were compaiable somewhat to other sources of power I would think it would be ok but I don't because the cost is way out of control. I wish enviromentalists would stop promoting wind energy until it becomes responably affordable. And besides I sure there are other better and cheeper forms of energy available people just have to think harder. I like the quote that electricity was the best thing discovered until somone decided to charge money for it.
That looks so green to me, Its amazing how these greeny idiots actually believe this is green energy. Green is nature and this has fuck all to do with nature sorry to bust your green bubbles idiots.
@FleshBloodAndSoul The audio is from a CD I have of the sounds of nature. It is a recording of an Aeolian Harp ( a type of harp you place outside to let the wind make it sound)
