That's just the lifespan of a typical wind turbine. Most last less than that.
But then Trawsfynydd nuclear power station was only operational for 26 years. The coal station up the road from me has been going for 55 years, but who know how much of the original guts of that remain.
In any case £9bn for 35 years of clean power seems like a bargain.
