I’ve spent some time in Western Oklahoma on and off the last 10 years. 10 years ago there was almost nothing. 5 years ago they started popping up, 2 years ago it started to just be everywhere. In other communities that are traditionally dependent on the oil industry the economies have been touch and go, but in places with wind (like western Oklahoma and Texas), it’s almost the ultimate hedge.
