Yep   

Four times the cost of a conventional power station but produces less power, depite large tax 
credits.

Takes up four time the area

Power cost  $260 per MWH after taxpayer subsidies  versus $100 for conventional power.

Dozens of dead birds already in just a few months of testing before full operation starts 
including falcons, grebes and hawks.

What's not to like about it.
