Despite the million-dollar
pound subsidy that the Crown Estates is expected to earn from the upcoming wind turbines
that will soon dot the Crown land, Prince Philip and Prince Charles have
staunchly opposed the notion, reports the Daily Mail.
Late last
year, the duke of Edinburgh called these wind turbine ‘absolutely useless,
completely reliant on subsidies and an
absolute disgrace’, claiming they would never work and would need back-up
capacity. Meanwhile, the prince of Wales called these “a horrendous blot on the
landscape.”
Campaign
groups have already emerged to oppose the project.
