Reply to comment by EscapeRich9091 in eli5: how long would power stay on if the power company abandoned their post? by larsattacks94
I work with wind energy.
Turbines are more complex than a car, and have oils and cooling systems. They have to be inspected on a weekly basis.
If there’s no one supervising them, they would wear out within the first weeks and permanently stop working.
