Village produces enough wind-energy to supply its whole county of 80,000 residents

Let's take a village of a bit less than 1000 residents.
Rural.
Middle-of-nowhere.
Not noteworthy at all.

Now let's add 29 wind-turbines and plaster each roof with solar-cells.
Congratulations: You have turned your village into a power-plant! Instead of just grains, your village now exports grains AND enough energy to supply some tens of thousands of people.

The only problem is, its just too much effort to create such a plant:
- a bank would have to give a loan for this long-term investment (and banks hate sucking on interest)
- steel-workers would have to build wind-turbines
- business-men would have to sell them
- truck-drivers would have to transport them
- construction workers and electricians would have to install them
- said electricians would have to maintain them
And of course the wind-turbines would need a proper power-grid to distribute the electricity.

Too much effort.

Who needs a job anyway.
