Mount Cass Wind Farm

If the country needs more power this is a great way to generate it. I would like to see a live visual display of the power being generated. I hope the turbines will be NZ made and the bigger the more efficient.

Frost Fighting Wind machines

To kick this blog off, this topic is hot at the moment and I understand the necessity of these machines to the economy of the Waipara Valley. Living about 8km away from the machines means I don't get affected. There are only going to be increasing numbers of wind machines and future residents should be made aware of what they're moving into.
