Its not just giant factories, dams, wind and solar farms that produce electricity. It seems like they are producing electricity everywhere in Europe. I was amazed at the wind farms I saw in Spain.

| Flying out of NW Spain,...I stopped counting at 155 windmills. Who knows how many more are behind the clouds? |
What really amazes me is how much power people produce on their personal property. The house I rent has solar panels on it and I believe my landlord makes about $150 per month off of it. I've heard that tax incentives promote home solar energy. Banks give loans for this kind of project

| One of the many homes like this. |
I believe farmers must get a bigger break, because the barns over here are covered with solar panels.
 |
| Is this a farm or a power plant? |
It's common to see the windmills along the highway.

| A common sight in Europe. Wind energy |
I noticed this little hyrdo elecric generator on this river.
