They got to switch parts (blades?) Often (?)

U have to build them in rural places, so often untouched nature suddenly gets huge windmills that might harm the environment around them. Either way its better than coal/oil etc but they seem to be extremely short sighted in their take on things (very idealistic, wouldn't work practically). 90% of the power we make in norway is hydropower anyway, don't see why we need windmills. Problem is we sell oil but that doesn't rlly get fixed by building windmills
According to the first result on google, they can last upwards of 25 years, which isn't a lot but surely isn't often. The thing about issues like climate change is that it's about harm reduction, not harm elimination.
I know but I still can't figure out why norway would start using wind turbines when 90% is already hydropower, the thing is the oil which we export but I don't see how building wind turbines in norway would help the export of oil. In countries where fossil fuel n shit is used tho I see how its better but eh
