Each wind turbine (see picture) cost a reported Rp 3.5 billion ($US325,000) to build and had a planned production capacity 80 kilowatts.

Contacted by phone, spokesperson of the Bali branch of the state-owned electricity company PT PLN, Agung Mustika, denied that the plants have never worked.

"All of the plants operate normally. If their turbines do not move, they are storing the energy. It doesn't mean they are not functioning," he said.
