Their turbines are defective. In 2007 Clipper’s first full year of production cracks developed on the blades of some turbines the company installed.

Teeth on some turbines’ gears began to wear prematurely.

Clipper can’t sell their turbines. They are shoddy. The Stetson Mt. windfarm in ME, largest in New England, used Clipper. They have already had a fire in a circuit board..and they aren’t online. They are trying to keep that fact a secret. It is very odd.

The Conn. AG is investigating 86 million paid out by ISO New England for alternative stand by energy which was never delivered. Cohocton in NY was also supposed to be online. Locals found out it wasn’t. Lots of odd politics.
