In my opinion, windmills would be a source of much dismay if installed on SXM. SXM does not have any vast open spaces where they could be installed and not be very visible. They are quite intrusive visually. My mom lives in Indiana, in the midst of a windmill farm, and they look like a bunch of eerie walking giants. That is her description of them, not mine. She says she sometimes dreams about them coming to life and walking around. Not a good visual, for an economy based on tourism. Solar cells, on the other hand, placed on a mountain side, are MUCH less visually intrusive and would be a good idea, in my opinion.
