What they say

'Absolutely useless, completely reliant on subsidies and an absolute disgrace.'

Duke of Edinburgh

‘…the arrogance and greed that has characterised the wind industry from the outset has caused it to ride roughshod over local concerns.’

Geoffrey Lean    

'The dream of environmentally friendly energy has turned into highly subsidised destruction of the countryside.'

Der Spiegel


'How is it that wind, with a 4000-year head start, is such a small player in the energy scene? Could it be — just possibly — that the answer has something to do with physics instead of economics and politics?'

Dr. Howard Hayden


'No energy when it’s too hot;

No energy when it’s too cold;

No energy when the wind’s too strong;

No energy when the wind’s too weak.

This Goldilocks approach is not the answer to our energy needs!'

Summary

The Litlington Wind Farm project plans to create an industrial scale wind farm in the rural parish of Litlington, South Cambridgeshire.  In 2011 South Cambridgeshire was rated as offering the best quality of life in Great Britain according to a Rural Areas Quality of Life Survey undertaken by the Halifax.

The plans call for the siting of wind turbines 100 metres tall – that’s taller than Big Ben, and there would be 5 of them.  To put this into local perspective, each would be more than 6 times the height of the Litlington church tower.  The wind farm would be located around half a mile from the nearest houses and promises to dominate the village and the surrounding landscape.
