It takes a huge amount of fossil fuel to build, maintain, store the energy, and then dispose of windmills.
The wind resource in Seattle is the most terrible. Half the energy for the year is during just 24 hours of wind storms.
But almost all the time there is worthless low wind.
Ideal would be a 15 mph wind available 24/7/365
Seattle is as far from ideal as it gets.
I was almost killed while trying to pass a windmill spar on highway 200 just West of Jordan MT.
When I gave up on passing and put on brakes because of oncoming traffic, the truck put on the brakes too.
WIndmills do not just kill eagles... they can kill people too.
You should stay in your house.
