I know of no wind turbines throwing parts and hitting anyone. I have stopped more runaway turbines than anyone ever has or will in the entire world forever...
Michael, Since I am not able to log onto the web site every day it's best to contact me directly for info like this. My article on mortality in the wind...
Dear wind power experts, Does it exist some simple arithmetical dependence between the small wind turbine's power and max/min capacity of battery, which used...
