Don't worry about thse windmills disrupting anything; there's nothing around Pampa to disrupt. My wife's family is all over that Texas-Okie pan handle area. There's not much there but semi-desert arid scrubland.
As for wind and solar power i'm all for them but they both require back-up systems when the wind slacks off & the sun goes down.There is also hydro in some areas that could be used for back-up. The biggest problem is the various interests involved will not get together and integrate this stuff as they want to keep on using fossil fuels or nuclear for whatever reason, mostly excessive profits hidden by creative financing, etc.
So until we can change the government and corporation mindset don't expect big results. Frankly I doubt the world as presently constituted will last that long.
