Turbines are going to catch fire. We have stated this in some of our presentations to our elected officials.
Wind companies can put on classes for local emergency responders and make it look like all their bases are covered and everyone is perfectly safe. But when it comes down to it, the tactic of “isolate and deny entry” is the only tactic that will be able to be used by any emergency service.
As well meaning and capable as any fire department is, when you have something that is 500-feet tall and spinning, you are outmatched. They will block off roads, evacuate houses and stand back and watch what happens with the rest of us.
How close will it be to your house? All of our elected officials received this information in December of 2013.
