Energy 101: Wind Turbines

See how wind turbines generate clean electricity from the power of the wind. Highlighted are the various parts and mechanisms of a modern wind turbine.

Danai is just one of hundreds of residents in Ontario who are having real problems because the McGuinty Liberal government allowed the wind energy corporations to site turbines too close to homes. Already over a dozen families have had to abandon their homes or be bought out with gag orders. • Amherstburg Council (at the time) despite serious warnings, did nothing to properly investigate this development. • Boralex and/or Gengrowth are denying any responsibility or liability. • The Ministry of Environment is taking complaints but simply files them away because they admit they don’t have the equipment and/or know-how to actually enforce the Certificate of Approvals they issue for wind projects. • The Green Energy Act strips citizens and municipalities of any power. These laws makes it impossible to get any recourse from the wind companies by residents negatively affected. The average homeowner would have to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to even begin to seek restitution. Learn more: windconcernsontario.org
