Alternative energy fact - the average wind turbine farm has 150 turbines - each turbine takes 80 gallons of crude oil to lubricate the gear box - meaning 12,000 gallons of crude oil per wind turbine farm - the average interval oil change for each wind turbine is 36 months. There are currently about 60,000 wind turbines in the United States with a plan to double in the next few years.
60,000 wind turbines times 80 gallons of crude oil = 4.8 million gallons of crude oil that needs to be changed every 36 months. with the plan to double that in the next few years that means every 36 months there would be 9.6 million gallons of crude oil needing to be changed.
There are currently 341,000 wind turbines around the planet - each needing 80 gallons of crude oil every 36 months.
341,000 x 80 = 27.28 million gallons of crude oil just to lubricate the alternative energy source - and where does this crude oil come from - oh yeah - oil companies drilling.
Unless you're the Beverly Hillbillies then it just comes a bubbling up out of the ground for you.
Just some friendly information.
