Unfortunately, the article that goes with the headline is not accessible to most readers. Presumably, it is mostly about Australia since the article is from Adelaide.

It is certainly important that building standards are adopted to ensure that turbines are built to withstand the conditions they will encounter.

However, it is not useful to post an alarming headline without access to the data and other relevant information to support the headline.

We can derive some information by the source, i.e. Murdoch/News Corp.
