    Not FIT for industrial turbines ROC's. But no different to any other form of generation that was growing.

    Posted By: tonyMy local lot are claiming that the inland based wind turbines in our area are efficient and that we should have more of them, I dont agree as the one we have would be much better sited on on a hillside somewhere nearer the coast same capital cost, hugely better output.


    Why does it have to be either or? there are benefits to geographically spreading your turbines out.

    To pick a slightly bizzare analogy wall insulation has a better payback than decent glazing but few would argue this was either or.

    We've been here before. It's all about appropriate developments both in geographical area and size of turbine. The bigger the turbine the further off shore it should be.
