Wind-Power Chatter

 I sat and read through an interesting piece from HR (my regional public TV folks)...concerning wind-generators.

So, if you were an investor and had some plan to erect three generators on a property in Hessen....it would take around 3.2 years to get all the paperwork approved for the transportation and erection.  

Getting to the point of submitting the paperwork?  They avoided that discussion, but I would guess you spent at least two years with your team....picking the right location and drafting the transport plan from the factory to the site.

The Green Party reaction to the current mess?  Unacceptable. 

Presently....seventy projects are in a 'waiting' pattern for permission to transport and erect.

Public opposition in the middle of this?  Once you announce a plan to put up a 'park' (say 3 wind-generators).....if they are within a couple of kilometers of some town....you can anticipate trouble, and legal challenges.  Same way with farmers....they don't want it near their dairy or cattle operation.

Selling wind-power today?  It's a rough business and not for the typical investor.
