Abstract

The article discusses what the author refers to as the general failure of current law to ensure the decommissioning of wind farms in the U.S. as of 2016, and it mentions the aesthetic and environmental harms that are associated with abandoned wind farms, as well as the costs that are associated with removing wind farms. Decommissioning laws across America are examined, along with land leases in Texas and the production of wind energy in Great Britain and the U.S.
