We should be - given that we are now dependent on a huge pipeline coming from Russia to supply us with mains gas ! That supply is vulnerable to failure for many reasons - and we should have a contingency plan in place as an alternative.
We should be prepared to sacrifice 'picture postcard' landscapes in favour of wind turbines. Sustainable power is more important than pretty scenery !
What else can I help you with?
How many birds are killed by wind turbines in a year in the UK?
I'm not sure about the UK, but in 2007 there were about 100,000 birds killed by wind turbines

What types of energy does the UK use?
natural gases, nuclear generators, cogeneration, wind turbines, coal and oil. And their are lots of renewables(e.g. wind turbines, solar panels...) possible more overall
Where does the UK gets its energy from?
wind turbines,coal,etc
Where is the best place in the UK for wind turbines?
Scotland & Northern Ireland.
Where have wind turbines been used successfully in the UK?
Britain has the largest offshore wind farm in the world, the 175-turbines of the London Array wind farm, off the Kentcoast.
Should the UK make more wind farms?
there are advantages of building windfarms and there are disadvantages of building them. I have no time to improve this answer.
In UK there more wind turbines and less solar cells why?
The UK is windier than some countries, and less sunny than others (especially in the middle of Winter like now!)
How many wind turbines do you need to replace a coal power station in the UK?
Both wind turbines and coal power stations come in different sizes, so there is no quick formula to convert one to the other.
How much of the UK's energy is produced from wind turbines?
As of 2021, wind turbines contributed approximately 24% of the UK's electricity generation. This figure has been increasing over the years due to significant investments in renewable energy infrastructure. The UK has become a global leader in offshore wind energy, further enhancing its wind power capacity. The proportion of energy from wind continues to rise as the country aims to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.
How many wind turbines are there in Scotland?
As of 2021, there are over 6,000 wind turbines in Scotland, making it a leader in wind energy generation in the UK. The country has made significant investments in renewable energy, including wind power, to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and combat climate change.
Which state has the most wind turbines?
Well, I am not sure about the state but I know that one of the Top 5 Countries to have the most wind turbines is UK. Has 186 wind farms holding 2,120 electrical producing wind turbines Can power over 1.5 million homes and saved up to 6 million tons of carbon i heard its California
