Wind Power Thread

[Alpha]

We should however not forget one thing: wind turbines have to stand much higher forces than radio towers, chimnies and electricity pylons and in fact spectacular failures are not so rare as most people think. Under this aspect it should be questionable if wind turbine city would be a good idea.
Better place the wind turbines in a safe distance to places at which permanent people are. However wind turbines with obseration decks would be good, as people visit observation decks usually at good weather where danger of failure is extreme low.

But one question: why are lattice towers incommon for carrying wind turbines ( I know, they are used, but not very often).
