A couple of Maine towns that installed wind turbines early have been disappointed with the results, and are on the financial hook now that the installer has declared bankruptcy, reports the Portland Press-Herald. First-mover advantage isn’t always an advantage.

Speaking of disappointment, it’s too bad that an article this well done confused kilowatts and kilowatt-hours, as so many people do. (Including me, if I’m not paying attention. We really need to think of better units.)
