just one of these turbines should be able to produce enough electricity to power 36,000 households of three people each for one year.

One year per year. And no, they obviously don't understand basic math.
According to the corporation, just one of these turbines should be able to produce enough electricity to power 36,000 households of three people each for one year.
These types of statements always trip me up. Why one year? If it's producing that amount of energy in that same year, shouldn't it just be "...power 36,000 households of three people."?
As an engineer feels like the turbine will only work for a year
