3 of the newest turbines in the state have been idle for years with infrastructure problems. 3 more that were down for over a year with infrastructure problems just came online this summer.
2 more built in 2009 are up for sale because the municipal power company is losing money since installing them..
The town with the largest green investment in the state, Carver, is bleeding money from its 5 turbines and its failed solar PV farm. 2 of the turbines were down for over a year with mechanical problems. Their solar farm opened in August and is suffering from a poor location causing shadows from the forest 20 feet away and the theft of numerous panels because of inadequate site security.
