Paul--depending on their location, these industrial wind turbines can have a

batteries. ItÂ’s a good unit but out of 24 that I currently have, I had to
send 5 back to get the

world?
At what population level? At what level of

At the present consumption level, there simply is no

energy for *most* life and a substantial contributor to all known physical
