And to continue my small rant wind farms are rubbish. For each wind turbine erected (lol) it takes two years for it to make the energy put into creating it and start producing energy - even once this is done it doesn't output a lot. Not to mention that the wind is very unreliable and unpreictable. Unlike tide strengh and tide tables which are quite accurately predictable almost a year in advance!

sorry it's off topic, ust thought I'd share some interesting stuff a learnt at a talk a while back.- But how many years does it provide energy for? How long do you think it takes a power-station to pay off it's energy debt?lukus_W
- I know what you mean, wind can't be relied on - but I think energy has to come from a variety of sources.lukus_W
- Wind power may as well provide some power - we're be stupid not to utilise all avenues.lukus_W
- What he is saying is 'it costs more to produce the turbin then it ever actually produces in energy'VikingKingEleven
- thts why there is giant subsides for wind and solar right now.VikingKingEleven
- Oil is still subsidized here in the US....formed
