And how long does it take for a wind turbine to repay the energy that went into making the materials that went into it, its fabrication, transport to site, erection and maintenance?

What is considered a normal life for one of these things?

I could ask how many birds and bats one will kill in its lifetime but that may hit a nerve with some.
