Almost every large turbine installed in Massachusetts under the stimulus act is now shutdown because of design flaws and / or construction mistakes.
Some of of the alleged 54 MW of wind power production installed in Massachusetts has been off line since 2010 with many still down that will not be back online until 2013.
The most pathetic incident revolves around a turbine installed on the northern outskirts of Boston near the water front. Very visable from I93 coming into the city. It sits there with visable rust already.
The foundation was so poorly built the mast has a tilt that will rip apart the turbine if allowed to spin in winds it was designed to produce peak power at.
Another turbine in Princeton chewed up a gear box just over a year and a half after it went on line. It died in August of 2011 and the replacement parts were due in May 2012. As of June 2012 the turbine was still offline.
The project is killing the town because the turbines have not produced the promised level of energy forcing the town operated power company to buy power from the grid.
