This wind farm has just opened near the coast of England. This will provide enough power for a small town.
It is not free power. There is the cost of the turbines and their maintenance, and the salaries of the workers, but it is much cheaper than other power sources and there is very little pollution.
However it spoils the view. Should we put up with this inconvenience?
