If it's a single turbine it'll be a farm turbine and either broken or self-protecting if it's proper windy. There's quite a few nice 50 kW class turbines in the SW but it was a niche market and they're not made anymore; spare parts are scarce. They aren't controlled by the grid – too small

It's a 500kW turbine. Very different to the small farm turbines. I was on the council when planning permission was passed. It can be turning and then not turning on the same day—but when it's not turning it's always sunny; and we have a lot of solar farms round here.
