Wins systems are extremely expensive and produce roughly 10% of the power they are rated at. A wind system I visited yesterday in Michigan will pay for itself in just under 200 years, unles it has a breakdown.
Fossil fuel plants must also run to supply backup power to these wind systems. This fuel consumption is ignore to maintain a "green" status for the wind turbines. If we included this fuel into the overall power used to build, maintain and run wind turbines, the numbers would come out worse then a coal plant.
