Quite an eye-opener! Thankfully, the largest wind farms are offshore (and I'm in the Hampshire area, pretty well bereft of wind farms).
According to Wiki "The total offshore wind power capacity installed in the United Kingdom as of February 2019 is 8,183 MW, the largest in the world. The United Kingdom became the world leader of offshore wind power generation in October 2008 when it overtook Denmark.[50] In 2013 the 175-turbine London Arraywind farm, located off the Kent coast became the largest offshore wind farm in the world; this was surpassed in 2018 by the Walney 3 Extension."
If more movies like "Turbines" latch onto the theme of potential adverse effects though, then public opposition to wind farm developments near residential areas could grow.
