According to manufacturers, the life span of wind turbines amounts to 25 years. Important influences on the life span are site specific (wind speed, storms, icing conditions) and the quality of the maintenance of the turbines. are not a part of the investment and operation costs, and are paid by the payer and therefore by the public. Examples of external costs for fossil fuel and nuclear electricity prod.
