There goes those plans to cover the continental shelf with talismen to the Wind Gods.
New research shows wind turbines off the East Coast of the US could end up stealing as much as a third of the energy from other wind turbines downstream. And in some conditions, the turbulent wake they leave might stretch out 55 kilometers behind them. This effect is worst on turbines in the same “farm” but could even affect other wind farms a long way off.
The wake effect will be strongest in summer. We’ll just have to ask everyone to turn off their air conditioners then?
Scientific civilizations do this sort of research before they commit $10 trillion dollars, set up a trading scheme, and blow up the coal plants. Imagine if building a coal plant near another plant made it 30% less efficient on hot days…The more wind turbines we have the more useless they are

The federal government has launched an appeal with the Supreme Court of Canada to defend its use of the Emergencies Act in 2022 in response to the Freedom Convoy.
The Federal Court of Appeal rejected in January Ottawa’s appeal against a 2024 lower court decision after finding the lower court had “correctly determined” the declaration of a public order emergency was unreasonable and that parts of the order infringed on Charter rights related to the freedom of expression.
Ottawa filed an application on March 17 to have an appeal heard at the Supreme Court, arguing that the lower courts had incorrectly reviewed the use of the Emergencies Act, which the government said was used because it believed the Freedom Convoy protest of 2022 presented a threat to Canada’s national security.
Court Case
The court action was launched by some of the protesters and civil liberties groups who had argued the federal government’s response violated Charter rights, and that actions such as freezing the bank ...
