New research discovers that wind turbines create a ‘turbulent wake’ that can steal almost 40% of energy from other ‘nearby’ turbines By Olivia Murray

The answer is a resounding no.

• Force conversions to electric vehicles without putting the proper and sufficient charging infrastructure in place? Check.
• Manufacture millions (billions?) of solar panels with no disposal plan in place? Check.
• Build countless offshore wind “farms” without conducting studies to determine the impacts? Check.

Jo Nova, who runs an eponymous blog, credited a watchdog organization for discovering this story by Kirk Moore:

Downstream turbulence from offshore wind turbines can reduce power generation at nearby turbines, substantially reducing the total potential from planned U.S. offshore wind projects, according to recent research from the Colorado University Boulder and National Energy Technology Laboratory...
