@JeremyPatzerMP Yah, bud.. I’d be happy to share with you my wealth of knowledge pertaining to wind turbines. Base load for instance, you can score 4 points if the ball you throw at the blade gets knocked outa the park.
True facts of wind turbines #11: Wind Turbines can be the source of a lot of noise, and this often disrupts the quality of living for people who live near them, generally due to the ignorance of information that can be easily googled. #Windturbins#windpower
True facts of wind turbines #10: Inside a wind turbines you will hear strange noises. This is due to the fact that they are all haunted. There is no cause for concern, it’s not that these spirits or ghosts are non-malevolent, they just don’t give a fuck about you. #greenenergy
True facts of wind turbines #9: Wind turbines produce electricity by turning. Thus the electricity they produce are only good for turning things. This is why they will be greatly useful for the future of electric vehicles. #GreenEnergy#ElectricCars
True facts of wind turbines #8: Each turbine is assigned its own Transformer. Transformers allow the power to be added to the grid. It is of the utmost importance that Decepticons are not used, as they will use the power for their nefarious plans. #WindEnergy#GreenEnergy#TCGM
True facts of wind turbines #7: The wind turns turbines clockwise. Due to the Coriolis Effect, in the Southern Hemisphere, blades are constructed so they won’t create counterclockwise power and make the clocks run backwards. #GreenEnergy#TCGM#WindEnergy
True facts of wind turbines #6: Wind turbines don’t shut down physically during cold weather, just emotionally. Giving them a pep talk and they will turn it around. #TCGM#GreenEnergy#WindEnergy
True facts of wind turbines #5: To maintain operation, motors automatically turn them into the wind. This is known as Yawing. Earlier models were yawned manually with a crank. This meant lengthy technician hours and inconvenient pizza deliveries. #GreenEnergy#TCGM#WindEnergy
True facts of wind turbines #4: Newer turbines are being built with elevators. Though more practical than the ones previously equipped with escalators, the music is not as good. #GreenEnergy#WindPower#TCGM#WindEnergy
True facts of wind turbines #3: During periods of low wind, wind turbines will draw energy from the grid to replenish the wind. On hot days large sheets of ice are placed in front to help reduce the energy demand of air conditioners. #WindEnergy#TCGM#SMRTIdeas#FansOfFans
True facts of wind turbines #2: Like a ceiling fan, the turbine speed is set by pulling a chain. It is important to log the number of pulls on the chalkboard otherwise the next technician may be subject to great frustration by having to tug the chain repeatedly.#TCGM#WindEnergy
