JOSH PUTS UP THE BIG ONES.
Utility-scale wind turbines: hundreds of feet of steel, blades longer than a football field is wide, and one guy who bolts them to the sky. The full site is still under construction. Good things take time. So do turbines.
SITE STATUS: SPINNING UP
Drag the wind. The sky obeys. Press & hold anywhere for a gust. Push past 25 m/s and see what a smart turbine does.
