This neddy-article explains, among other matters, why cycling’s future is in unending landscapes of monstrous wind turbines and over the carcasses of the millions of birds they kill.

PG&E contrary to their Green messages, have never made one cent of profit from any of their solar or wind farms. The open lies of the left are that Nuclear Power is dangerous and that nuclear waste isn't manageable. The facts are that we have over 200 years of Thorium fuels and there is little waste.. The waste problem was solved in the 70's and nuclear wastes are little to no problem at all. Thorium reactors cannot "melt down". If there is any sort of depressurization of the reactor, fission simply ceases. It runs cool enough that water cooling only allows it to run hotter and be more efficient at producing power. They can even use air cooling.

The Germans, who were the most committed and therefore the worst Greens on the Continent are in a very bad way for energy. They shut down all fossil fuel power stations on a whiff and a promise of wind and solar power, which then wasn’t delivered, so any 3-year old toddler with his brains in gear could have told them would happen. Now they’re dependent on the old enemy, Russia, for their power via two vulnerable pipelines. What kind of politician actively plans and promotes such a catastrophe? Merkel’s first job was as a publicist in the Komsomol (Young Communist) movement in East Germany — and they made her Chancellor of Germany!

The sly French all along kept their nuclear power plants so they’re in a better position.

Personally, I like the Germans. They’re always on time for meetings..

Rather than plan on the need for real energy production via Thorium reactors, the US under that demented fool Biden is spending more money on useless wind technology than he is spending to protect our southern borders thus requiring even more energy expenses incurred. The blubbering moron leftists here think that this is wonderful. I'm sure that Frank believes that the millions of people pouring over the border is no problem because they aren't killing people in the street in his sleepy little town so it is perfectly OK that it is happening in Chicago and Detroit.

"all"?

Any 3-year-old knows you're as full of shit as usual.

Yes skippy, we know we should believe you instead of any information we see from German Working Group on Energy Balances (AG Energiebilanzen) or the German Federal Statistical Office (Destatis). They're just another group of bureacrats feeding us lies, but you - a retired south african living in ireland - are privy to the real truth about the German energy sector.

As usual, andre the liar builds a strawman in an attempt to cover up a previous lie.

The link I provided was a counter to your claim "They shut down all fossil fuel power stations on a whiff and a promise of wind and solar power".

That link from the German Working Group on Energy Balances (AG Energiebilanzen) with data from the the German Federal Statistical Office (Destatis) shows about 44% is generated from fossil fuels. Feel free to admit you were wrong when you wrote "They shut down all fossil fuel power stations on a whiff and a promise of wind and solar power" any time now.

Of course, you then build the strawman to claim the discussion point was where they get their fossil fuels from and that I claimed they get all they need from local sources.

I didn't write that, or even insinuate that, you lying piece of shit.

The blustering idiot who is full of shit is the one that wrote "They shut down all fossil fuel power stations on a whiff and a promise of wind and solar power", then lied about my response by claiming I wrote they get all they need from local sources. In you case, I think the term "bloviating shitbag" is more appropriate.

You're falling into tommy gravitational pull of lies and deceit skippy, it ain't pretty....

Quite telling how they scramble to turn off even slow, lignite-fired
plants for a few hours past noon when both the wind happens to blow, and
the sun happens to shine, and nobody wants to import the excess either:
<https://www.agora-energiewende.de/en/service/recent-electricity-data/chart/conventional_power_generation/05.05.2022/12.05.2022/today/>
What's urgently needed is more wind generators rotating wind turbines
powering high-efficacy lamps driving photovoltaic cells ...!!!

Sepp, as an engineer I would agree in one second if I thought that solar and or wind answered anything. But wind power is rather useless since if the wind blows to slowly if produced no power and if it blows too hard the units burn themselves up. What they have tried is to make the windmills so large that they cannot be broken by the wind. The problem with this is that the ends of the propellers are now approaching the speed of sound and this vibrates all the way down the pillar. On land it is environmentally destructive and on water it kills all of the local fish. You should see the cows huddling around each other as far away from the windmills as they can get in out area of windmills. They are becoming defended.

Solar power is more costly than fossil fuel and it is extremely unreliable. But Elon Musk if making millions off of selling batteries to these solar farms. What do you suppose happens when these batteries age to uselessness? You cannot destroy the batteries and you cannot recycle the materials. You can only bury them. Where do you suppose they are going to so that? Under the sands of the North Sea at low tide? Poison the oceans? Or perhaps you have large areas in Germany that can be poisoned permanently?

Most certainly fossil fuels are environmentally unfriendly but we know how to deal with it.

A great interim project. One step closer to digging holes

I agree with you and see that I posted a treatise so badly composed that it is almost unreadable.

Wow. That's even worse than Tom's usual ranting and rambling.

Tom, can your wife help you with your meds? And maybe do some basic
proofreading before you post?

So many mistakes! So many problems!

I thought it was pretty funny
- "as an engineer" (as if....)
- if it blows too hard the units burn themselves up (sure, like they don't have limiters designed in to prevent it)
- ends of the propellers are now approaching the speed of sound and this vibrates all the way down the pillar (Tip speeds are generally limited to 180 MPH, this information is readily accessible*)
- it kills all of the local fish (um...no...Birds and bats have issues, not fish. There are studies that show the noise from construction of turbines is detrimental, but there is no evidence that blade noise has any effect)
- cows huddling around each other as far away from the windmills as they can get (I don't even know what to do with this one, Gary Larson maybe?)

I'd laugh at the absurdity of our world, but the times are fraught. Even the great Victor Davis Hanson, a distinguished classicist to whom little of the world's evil dangers can come as a surprise, is sounding rattled at the distinct possibility of a nuclear war that demented old man in the White House is stumbling into. See "Imagine the Unimaginable" at https://townhall.com/columnists/victordavishanson/2022/05/12/imagine-the-unimaginable-n2607124

The whining about wind turbine noise amazes me. I can't be the only
person who's stood right at the base of one and listened, can I?

Speaking of whine: That was all I heard - the unmistakable sound of
transmission gears at work. It was barely audible.

The larger turbines have variable pitch propellers and feathering
mechanisms (where they turn the turbine to be perpendicular to the
wind).
<https://www.google.com/search?q=pitch+regulated+wind+turbine>

Nope. The wind is faster at higher altitudes. Power output is
proportional to the cube of the wind speed. Therefore, bigger
generates more power, is more efficient, occupies a smaller footprint,
etc.

>The problem with this is that the ends of the propellers are
>now approaching the speed of sound

Tip speed is getting close, but has a way to go.
<https://www.linquip.com/blog/what-is-wind-turbine/>
HAWT (horizontal axis wind turbine) spin at about 22 rpm. The largest
blade length is on the Siemens Gamesa 14-222 DD at 354 ft or 108 m.
<https://www.siemensgamesa.com/products-and-services/offshore/wind-turbine-sg-14-222-dd>
The circumference of the rotor at the blade tips is:
Pi * 2 * radius = 3.14 * 2 * 354 ft = 2,286 ft
RPM is revolutions per minute. 22 rpm will move the tip around at:
2,286ft/rev * 22 rev/min = 50,290 ft/minute
50,270ft/min / 60 sec/min = 838 ft/second
The speed of sound is 1,125 ft/sec so the rotor tip is:
838 / 1,125 = Mach 0.7
Supersonic effects BEGIN at Mach 1.0, so there's some margin before we
can expect a sonic boom from a wind turbine.

>and this vibrates all the way down the pillar.

The only way for a wind turbine to vibrate is if the turbine, drive
train, and motor are unbalanced. Something would need to break before
that happens. I assume that the turbine blades are balanced at some
point during the installation. However, I don't know how it's done.

>On land it is environmentally destructive and on water it kills
>all of the local fish.

Actually, the offshore wind turbines are turning into fish
sanctuaries:
"How do offshore wind farms affect ocean ecosystems?"
<https://www.dw.com/en/how-do-offshore-wind-farms-affect-ocean-ecosystems/a-40969339>

>You should see the cows huddling around each other as far
>away from the windmills as they can get in out area of windmills.

Cows are herd animals and always tend to gather together for
protection. You should look at online images of cow herds and see for
yourself:
<https://www.google.com/search?q=herd+of+cows&tbm=isch>

>They are becoming defended.

I'm becoming offended.

(...) The rest deleted.

Last summer my wife and I spent a long weekend in Rockport MA for her birthday. We spent one afternoon hiking through Dogtown forest, which is adjacent to an industrial park where Varian Semiconductor built what is currently the tallest wind turbine in New England (486 feet to the top of the blade circumference). It was a typical windy day , and as we wound our way through the forest we kept hearing an oscillating 'whoosh'. Even at 486 feet, the turbine wasn't generally visible through the forest canopy. We could only get about 100 yards from the turbine, but even then the noise was significantly less than one hears standing next to a highway with moderate traffic going the speed limit. I could see if you lived next to one, it might get annoying, but then white noise is often recommended for people with insomnia. It actually reminded us more of the sinusoidal rhythm of the surf we could hear all night in our hotel room which faced Cathedral Rocks.

We didn't hear any mechanical noise at all

The vast majority of wind turbines limit the rotor speed such that the tips run under 180 MPH. The following shows that the current design maximums are ~300 feet/second or ~ 200 mph

https://www.wind-energy-the-facts.org/tip-speed-trends.html

I couldn't find any data on the maximum rpm of the Siemens Gamesa, but I would think they would limit to decrease inertial forces on the blades. The point of larger blades AFAIU is to generate more torque, not horsepower, but I could be wrong about that.

Even the great Victor Davis Hanson, a distinguished classicist to whom little of the world's evil dangers can come as a surprise, is sounding rattled at the distinct possibility of a nuclear war that demented old man in the White House is stumbling into.

> Don't shoot the messenger; he only delivers the envelope. ---- AJ

I was forwarded another one of Jeffies childish postings. He is attempting to calculate the blade tip speed of a windmill in order to discredit my claim of "near the speed of sound." I suppose he is simply too stupid to know that the while he shows the blade tip moving in the transonic region (0.7 to 1.2 x the speed of sound), it never occurs to him for one second that the wind is accelerated over an aerodynamic wing section putting a tip speed of 0.7 SOS to very close to the speed of sound in the aerodynamic and generating a sound that deafens the bats causing them to fly haphazardly near the blades where a large number of them are killed from collapsed lungs due to the volume of sound. Those that do not fly too close to the blades are killed nonetheless because they are deafened and cannot feed. This is why cattle do not like this whining sound since most animals can hear in frequencies much broader than humans who rely upon eyesight. Why do you suppose people like Jeffie work so hard to prove me wrong about the slightest detail? This is clearly a severe mental problem that must have something to do with his health condition. He was never what anyone would call a bicyclist and now he doesn't ride at all due to health conditions and his rapidly reducing physical capacity. So his entire life appears to be disproving what I say which could simply show he is wrong because of a glut of scientific journal articles that say nothing more than I do.

I guess he doesn't like my negative comments about wind power because he has this dream that green energy exists. The fact is that even in the Altamont pass where I have often ridden, windmills are only active at most 25% of the time. They are even installed on the lee side of some of the hills meaning that they almost never operate but receive government funding because they are installed. Jeffie is a poor fool who is becoming a demented poor fool. But he is doing it to himself so those who can see his posting and know anything can simply shake your heads, The rest of his group that have marginalized themselves from truth and fact can only make additional ignorant statements since nothing divided by nothing is still nothing.
