Of those answers, E would be more appropriate as it takes a lot of wind turbines to match the power output of a conventional coal power plant. However, the public complains about A the most and there are man other problems such as infra sound, maintenance requirements and the most overlooked, it isn't load following, just because you flipped on a light switch doesn't mean the wind will blow harder. Wind turbines destabilize the grid thereby requiring load following or near load following production to be added which so far means gas power plant operated in the least efficient manner for peak loads and wind power is only useful for base load power. Wind also blows mostly at night.

Well the only two that apply are A and E. A can be solved by putting ribbons or LED's on them, E is a fact that comes with having to put at least 10 huge turbines on a field

Gotta be A, damn cause you can still farm everywere around the spinners just not the base

Both A and E are concerns.

E, i can bet on that, a 1000 bucks !

One concern with wind energy is

A) visual pollution

B) greenhouse gas emissions

C) the lack of energy production at night

D) that the amount of potential energy is minimal

E) the large amounts of land needed

I believe the correct answer is A? Can anyone confirm
