In West Texas, where I grew up, I had a wind farm planned. I'd gotten the turbines bought and the land acquired, and then the renewable energy credit imploded, and it killed the margins, so the deal never worked, but the investment bank I was working with asked me and said, 'We really like what you did. Would you come to work for us?

I recently declined to support a Conservative function because I'm so incensed about these wind turbines. Like all so-called climate-change doubters, I am very pro the environment, but I strongly believe that it is something that can only be cured locally. Some insane overall scheme isn't going to cure all the problems.

America is home to the best researchers, advanced manufacturers, and entrepreneurs in the world. There is no reason we cannot lead the planet in manufacturing solar panels and wind turbines, engineering the smart energy grid, and inspiring the next great companies that will be the titans of a new green energy economy.

American Politician

Michael Shellenberger

Sunlight and wind are inherently unreliable and energy-dilute. As such, adding solar panels and wind turbines to the grid in large quantities increases the cost of generating electricity, locks in fossil fuels, and increases the environmental footprint of energy production.

American Author

Roger Scruton

For two centuries the English countryside has been an icon of national identity and the loved reminder of our island home. Yet the government is bent on littering the hills with wind turbines and the valleys with high speed railways.

English Philosopher

I remembered seeing it and it was this metallic turbine and I thought it was beautiful. I had never been in a power plant before, but I felt, without being overly dramatic, compelled to make photographs of this for myself.

My plane is a Premiere; it has very efficient gas turbine engines. It goes very fast on relatively little fuel. Flying has been my passion since I was a kid.

Turbines convert energy from fluids moving naturally or artificially.

Fluid Motion

Turbines are crucial in power generation facilities.

Energy Production

Different turbines are designed for specific fluids like steam or water.

Variety of Fluids

In aviation, turbines draw in and expel air quickly to move planes forward.

Aircraft Propulsion

Jet turbines operate at very high speeds and temperatures.

High Speed

Turbine technology advancements have greatly impacted aircraft design.

 It's a big deal to put wind turbines out in the ocean. The ocean, the winds are much stronger, and the winds are much more constant, not only stronger. So it balances the grid beautifully. But it's really hard to build things in the deep ocean. Norway's good at it. So let them take that on. Are they taking it on?

 turbine you could design it yourself and save a little bit of money but you really don't want to do that because if you do it wrong you get a hinge Tower which really isn't very helpful for creating electricity so now we're bringing in the nacelle this has got a gearbox and a generator in it we waste

 The last time we left it, it had helped make steel, which, climate impact notwithstanding, is one of the key building blocks of our economies. It's in many, many things, from huge structures to everyday household items like refrigerators or washing machines. We use it to build wind turbines,

 and nuclear was a really big advancement in a way to heat the water, but you still boil water and that turns to steam and turns the turbine. And I thought, you know, is this the best way to do it? Is fission kind of played out, or is there something left to innovate here?
