Re: Knuckling under
And how, Mr Phil Lord, do you propose to 'make wind power more effective' when its pushing the absolute limits of Betz' law and you can't make a windmill out of dreams and fairy dust: It takes energy.
Betz' law only applies to the blades themselves. there are other areas where efficiency can be increased such at the generator stage, bearings etc. For example, we could replace the present generators with those based on high temp superconductors which have been trialed. I don't think we have reached peak efficiency in any way or form
