  1. For me, the biggest problem of wind power is that they are not that good at a local level, say on your home compared to solar and that might not matter that much for now, but it's a given that as renewable energy gets better and cheaper and battery tech continues to improve, more of us are going to want to generate more of our energy at a local level on our homes and reports are going around that solar is going to be cheaper than all the alternatives, so much so that it become cheaper to not be on the grid any more. The solar industry is already bigger than wind, I suspect over the next decade or so, that gap is going to widen a lot unless the wind industry finds a solution to generate enough energy that's useful without the need for them to be massive and low noise enough that many of us wouldn't have a problem using them on our homes. The advancement of solar is likely going to keep advancing that it could be everywhere and blend into a lot of buildings without impacting the visual makeup, I don't see wind power competing with that in the long run as the advancement of tech continues, most of us are going to want to go gridless so we have full control over the energy we use and what we pay, which will end up more or less being free in the long run.
