YES; I would definately be willing to put an array of wind turbines on my farm. I would advocate that our Government have several standard turbines and turbine array designs available to farmers that would be beneficial in particular areas. for example: Windy Dry climates may benefit from Vertical axis turbines which may also be used as passive solar shade platforms to slow moisture evaporation. Wetter climates may use Horizontal axis turbines with greater efficiency. Also a combination of energy production and storage means could do good things for our manufacturing economy. Pnuematic post hole diggers and hand tools as well as hydrogen production should be welcomed on any farm as well as electricity production for grid credits. SA12
