It only makes sense that he's thrilled as he's making money from these things at the expense of his neighbors. There's a bunch of other residents of Fenner who have to live with these things who aren't quite as cheerful. Oh well. Farmers have had a welfare mindset for so long now they'd take subsidies from the devil himself.
@slingshot731 I beg to differ. I also have two turbines here in Fenner. I wouldn't say what I lease out my land for because it's my concern alone. I'm sure Scott feels the same way. Wind power has been introduced to NY to SUPPLEMENT the grid, not to be the sole provider. I'm certainly no "tree hugger," but when you live in a place where there is an AVERAGE wind speed of 17.5 MPH and it takes just 5 to make the turbine generate, it's a pretty good idea to harness that limitless source of fuel.
...and if he didn't want to tell his income because it isn't much, then why would be be all in favor of wind energy? You non-tree huggers may be educated, but you really need to get some common sense ;)

Wind farms are a tax write off scam. Notice how he would not say what his income from the project is? I have worked with FPL on 3 wind farms. What a tax payer rip off.
Do you want to depend on the wind being blowing when you turn on your light switch? Of course not, that energy is still being supplied and held at the ready by the base load thermal power plants. You tree huggers really need to get educated.
Finally a video that tells the truth about wind energy. Now that the government is onboard expect to see more and more WTG's coming to a horizion near you.

I want to do this I live in Hereford AZ and we are always complaining about how windy it is, for $200 the wind would be much more tolerable.

Property Owners are paid anywhere from $4000.00 to $10,000.00 PER Wind Turbine PER
year as a lease to have them on their property.If you have 100 Wind Turbines you could get paid an average of $400,000.00
