Bishop Hill in Energy: wind

Those with interests in wind turbines are not having the best of times right now.

Yesterday's news that scientists have been able to demonstrate detrimental health effects on people living near windfarms - a finding that will surely lead the way to massive damages claims - was just the start of it.

Today it is being reported that there has been a wholesale collapse in orders for offshore wind turbines, as investors read the writing on the wall - as the Guardian reported over the weekend, behind the public recitations of the green catechism, government is moving decisively towards a gas-powered future..

This is hardly surprising, in the light of yet more proof that the cost of wind power is ruinous.
