An English windfarm makes a "wind fall" profit when the government pays them ten times what they would make if they had produced energy to stop producing for eight and a half hours.  It seems that gusty winds caused the power managers to fear the grid would be overloaded, a legitimate concern, but ten times the money they would otherwise have made??  Whoever came up with this pricing structure should be shot .... or tied to the blade of a big windmill for eight and a half hours.

The English also discover, to their horror, that in order to provide only a sixth of the nations power needs ( they want to get to 20%), they would need to cover an area the size of Wales with windmills.
