Having seen these machines near Palm Springs, they seem to be
rather small and of an older design.

I wonder if they shouldn't be replaced, that's prime wind territory.

In the Netherlands many farmers have them on their land, especially
in the northern provinces.

Do they rent the space to the wind-generator owners, or do they each
install and maintain them themselves? Is there a subsidized rate for
the sale of electricity to the grid?

Thanks,
