This really comes as a shock to many as Chicago is supposed to be as windy as a city can get in USA. But then that might not always be sufficient for those who rely on wind energy to power their homes and get the required returns from their green investments in a time frame that would be normally acceptable. One of the problems with using alternate energy is that the initial price of the technology is often too high compared to the ones that run on conventional fuel. This is of course not to say that those who invest in the renewable sources do not get a profitable bargain. But that is only possible over a lengthy period of time. In a world where short-term benefits are regarded very highly, this is indeed a bit of a problem.
