My friend also notes that winds race faster high in the atmosphere. So, he suggests placing a wind-powered generator on a blimp high, high above the earth. Tether the blimp to the ground, so it doesn't blow away. His thought is, that this, too, could be a prison project, prisoners monitoring and servicing the wind generator.
They might have to ratchet it back down to earth for some of its care. At any rate, this is another novel idea.
