‘Turbine graveyards’ sprawled across Texas

  • Independent journalist Ron Kendall Jr warns of “turbine graveyards” which have been popping up over the US state of Texas as turbine blades reach their useable life.
    Texas is home to more than 15,000 wind turbines and has been dubbed a “clean energy powerhouse”.
    In a documentary produced by Yucca Films, Mr Kendall Jr investigates the lifespan of the turbines and where they go once used.
    “Once they reach their usable life we are seeing more of these, I like to call them turbine graveyards, popping up throughout the state, some to the scale of over 20 to 40 acres of maybe ten tall stacked up,” he told Sky News host James Morrow.
    “It doesn’t seem like there was much thought into the end of life for a lot of these renewable energy sources.”
    Mr Kendall Jr added many blades are being replaced within two years on some of the newer facilities.

    I'm a Texan, but also have farmland in Iowa. We were approached around 12 years ago about putting some of these windmills on our land. When I asked them about my main concern, which was what happens, who pays for, and who removes it when it has reached its lifespan, all you heard was crickets. They had no idea. When I pressed the issue, I never heard from them again. That pretty much answered my concerns.

    My dad owned farm ground (now my siblings and I do). Dad told us to NEVER allow anyone to put a wind turbine on our land. He was concerned about that “end of life” issue. Who pays to take it down? ….to remove the foundation? What if the company who put it in is now out of business? And, environmentally, what do you do with it once it’s removed? You’re in “tornado alley”…what happens if a tornado comes through there? I feel like someone ran with an idea without thinking it through.

    One of my farmer friends was approached by a green energy producer about leasing their land for a solar farm. There was a 20 year contract. At the end the solar company would simply walk away, and the land owner responsible for reclaiming the land. The panels contained hazardous materials that could only be recycled by one company. In Belgium.

      Seems a typical scam by an energy producer. Same deal with the oil companies wanting to lease and take the oil and natural gas from under your properties. You sell them you rights, for very little money, they take what they want and after the ground has been destroyed by fracking and other processes, they leave you with the mess. And people fall for this ruse for a quick but small chunk of cash.
      They pay you relatively little for the use of your land, they make profits and in the end you're stuck for the cleanup and land restoration, possibly you being forced to do so by the government and in the end you lost more money than you were ever paid! NO THANKS

I'm getting into the recycling business; with the Green energy replaceable industries being fully supported by the sheeple of the world, recycling solar panels, wind turbines, Batteries, and electric vehicles is growing exponentially and unstoppable now, and because they are so short-lived hence the catchy name “replicable” the media calls them “Renewable” sounds better for the Sheeple, renewable ha ha , the best bit is that Albosleezy’s “United Nations Australian Labor Government” will subsidise all the recycling businesses of the Green industries and also subsidise the landfill of toxic and unrecyclable parts, I've heard the new designated name for these many new Landfill facilities, will be "Green landfill projects", this is a growing Green gold mine. Made possible By the UN Member Country Politician TRAITORS pushing the WEF=UN=WHO invented CLIMATE CHANGE Scam that has sucked in the Sheeple, Green is actually very brown and never supposed to be successful supplying energy, BUT! it working to bankrupt the UN-Member Countries.

    It truly amazes me as an Engineer how lifetime costs of these systems are ignored by "Green" technology gurus. They just look at the "savings" from the time the device already has been installed, and then stop looking at costs of maintenance, repair, and disposal at the end of life of the device. These systems need to be looked at fully. Maintenance can equal the initial capital cost on utility systems like wind turbines, and solar cells. Then there is the cost to dispose/recycle (if that was even considered by the engineers that designed and built the devices.) They also ignore the environmental disasters they are building, like the killing of wildlife, poisoning of water due to the extraction of rare earths, etc. These Greenies are basically "hacks", and should be taken out of circulation in my opinion and really given peer reviews by various engineering specialties before being allowed to proceed.

      The industry standard metric Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE), most famously published yearly by Lazar, does include initial investment, lifetime maintenance, fuel costs, and end-of-life decommissioning costs. It does not take into account negative externalities that are not directly charged to the energy producer. However, you are wildly incorrect if you think that green energy produces anywhere near the damage that fossil fuels do (to human health, to existing man-made structures, to the environment, etc.).

    The blades are fiberglass, a mix of cloth and resin. Resin is recyclable, it takes tremendous heat to separate it from the cloth, but recycled resin can be used multiple times. The cloth can not be recycled but is easier to dispose of without being saturated with resin. Sunlight is the enemy of fiberglass, heat and sun causes the compound mixture to continuously harden [over time] until it becomes brittle and breaks. Where do all the fiberglass Boats go after they die?

    I can remember the old fashioned farmer's windmills,they had at least a dozen twisted flat metal blades on them and they spun reasonably well and lasted for years with little maintenance,I always wondered why they didn't make these wind turbines the same way but bigger

      Dear patfallon, they produced quite small amounts of power. I gather that three very long blades is the most economical way to gather what power they can. They bloody well aren't "turbines". The turbine invented by Charles Parsons was a brilliant, very new advance upon the reciprocating engine of the splendid steam locomotive.
      So anyway there is a great deal of misguided cleverness goes into these Satanic Wind Mills. At about 12 m/s (metres per second) the vanes have already presented less than their full area to the wind. It is the methodology that parallels the "reefing" of the sails in a boat or ship. As the wind speed goes up, they shed progressively more, until the wind is so strong that they present the minimum possible, and stop. The power of the wind is proportional to the cube of its speed, so the graphs I have seen that seem like a straight line from 6 m/s to 12 m/suggest that wind speeds up to 6 m/s are fully used, but producing only twice as much at twice that speed means that 3/4 of the wind power is not being used.
      The demands imposed upon the roots of the vanes, both to be rotated on their own axes, and to resist the torque trying to keep the blade resisting the wind at all, quite amaze me

    The complete system was "supposed" to last 20 years and take 10 million for each unit.
    Basically, they are viable through subsidies alone.
    They would need to produce at least 500 thousand dollars a year for 20 years just to break even.
    Green?
    Hell no.
    Think about the extraction of metals through mining. The ore is blasted, diesel loaders fill huge Electro Haulers to the rail system, the ore is transported to Lakers then taken to be refined in blast furnaces, smelted, shipped to processors, shaped into sheets, shipped to be turned into the needed towers, copper for the windings is mined and goes through the same process, then when all components are ready they are loaded onto convoys of tractor trailers and transported to the site hundreds of miles, off loaded and cranes are used to erect them.
    The blades are made in places like Grand Forks North Dakota using similar metals and also petrochemicals for the resins used.
    I make this point because if you calculated all of the Diesel for transportation, the petrochemicals for the manufacturing the coal for the furnaces, gasoline for the chase vehicles and all of the oil in the nacelles for lubrication and cooling, you will understand these things are NOT green.

    When i took Engineering some of our course load looked at composite materials and we even toured Boeing and Standard Areo, we learned about the creep that happens with structural members with aircraft when faced with the wind loads. So when I hear about Wind Turbine blades I suspect those blades are monitored for stress creep as well and torsional loading. The blade has to withstand wind which bend the blade but also it turns which is a compound torsion and there must be a lot of strain gages in the blades to make sure they are not delaminating as a result of the torsion. Something else that I had learned about the wind turbine systems is the nature of the resin used is such that the blades are hard, and I saw one video where they used a diamond cutting chain that cuts through the blades. If you need a chain with industrial diamonds in it to cut a blade to make it manageable how much more energy do you need to grind them up to be used in other products?

    These turbine blades are common everywhere in mountain areas or plains areas in the USA, including here in PA in the Alleghany Mountain Range near State College PA and central PA areas. You now see many non-running dead units here in PA that have been damaged, or not serviceable or at end of life. When they fail they re too costly to repair so they sit, sometimes catch fire from lack of being maintained etc. Fatigue and stress cracks are common modes of failure.
    Fiberglass is nearly impossible to recycle cleanly. It is the same situation as recycling tires. It can be done but at a massive non-profitable cost generating its' own form of pollution. All about the profit - being clean and green has nothing to do with it.

They get cut and cracked into small pieces. This can be used in the cement industry as heating material or the fibers get extracted and are used for new materials.

    The money in wind turbines is made on the front side rather than the backside or as a result of the energy resulting from the operational turbines. The sale of the turbines is a money maker and the shipment of the turbines generates good income from trucking companies because they are oversized loads and not every trucker is qualified for those.
    No money in the recycling of the turbines.

    There is 400 gallons of oil in each and everyone of the wind generators, that's something else no one wants to talk about. They also disrupt air flow. Which makes the world a hotter dryer place to live. They don't want to talk about that either!!!!!!!!!!!

      Probably because that is not the case.
      Not all windturbines use that much oil.
      Some use even synthetic oil.
      Machines with moving parts usually need lubrication, which should not be a surprise.
      Wind turbines do not make the world hotter, they just mix the air in their vicinity, which reduces the risk of freezing during winter.

    I was over near there in late November from Australia and the turbines were everywhere. I stopped at the intersection where the movie cast away finished , ( Tom hanks talked to the lady in the Ute ) and the windmills covered ground in all directions nearly. Kansas and Missouri also had these, we passed them for hours and hours. Disgraceful

      I grew up in the Texas panhandle. Lots of wind so now tons of wind turbines. They are so ugly to look at and noisy. Add on the issues of them all failing when it turns cold, the recycling failure, the oil leaking out over the ground around towers, high cost, and I'm very sure I've missed problems. Bring back coal!

    Give the people the money it took to make these instead of these companies. Let them purchase passive energy savings like new windows and insulation. Or even scaled-down turbines made for individual homes.

    Fiberglass has been used for bullet proof vests. They require additional ingredients. Such as the kevlar in ecpired tires. The pipes you should be easily cut to the right shape for vests.
