Without a propper case study. Ha ha ha There's not enough wind here in Mpumalanga babba

All that land and all those birds... where are the environmentalists? Remember that, MONEY, has always been on top of the 'renewable energy' agenda. Can you imagine the billions of rands(in loans) we are going to spend on this scam... SowetanLIVE eNCA MYANC Our_DA

Wouldn't turbines be best where there is alot of wind Like in coastal regions?

I prefer solar energy , it doesn't disappoint like wind energy

Don't hold your breath people.

Mpumalanga doesn’t even have enough wind to turn those shet, di tlo draiša ke mang?

Nothing will change. Seriti will soon appear as one of ANC donors
