Quote:I also like some of the new 1MW turbines coming out with horizontal axis direct feed alternators, there no bloody great big nacelles full of gearboxes to worry about the new ones are much smaller, need less MTCE and are quite neat.

There are a lot of those near us. Agree, very low footprint. Hardly notice them at all.

For an example of community off-grid power, see below:
