Quite apparently incapable of operating on their own, what purports to be the future of electricity generation turns out to be a pair of complete duds. [Note to Ed: is this the part where we point out tricky facts such as […]
It didn’t take power punters long to work out that wind power will never amount to a meaningful power generation source.
