We used to in Victoria but changes in the regulations about where wind farms could be built meant fewer new projects and the company closed its doors.

I thought all the wind turbine stuff came from Denmark. I was surprised to read that the blade was made in China.

This project is by a German company and parts are from all over the globe, China, Korea,Vietnam, Denmark, Germany and others.

Hello from Brisbane.

About ten years ago when I was working out in Western China I drove past a wind farm under construction. I gave up counting the turbines at 300......

Ditto in Xian around that time most of the buildings had solar panels.

So, it’s an error to assume that they aren’t global heavyweights in making or using this stuff.

Cheers,
