I spent three weeks last January on a wind farm outside Lubbock, watching a crew of twelve coordinate the placement of forty-eight turbine foundations across nine square miles of flat ranchland. The logistics were staggering — and they were managed almost entirely on paper spreadsheets and handheld radios. Two foundations were poured in the wrong position. The cost of correction: $340,000 and eleven lost days.
