I've worked on maintenance operations for WHI at the Palm Springs Windstar turbine array. I was quite impressed by the elegant simplicity of the Windstar design. That approach enables installation and maintenance to be performed by folks who are not highly specialized. It's roughly on par with doing basic maintenance and repairs on a car. I think that makes these turbines uniquely positioned for rapid, large scale build-out once the certification process is complete.
