They shouldn't have built it next to the Eiffel Tower then.

Could have just put a rotor on the Eiffel tower

Why have they not built the Eiffel tower in the Eiffel mountain range?

There's a lot of network and météo antennas on the Eiffel tower, it's used a lot already for its convenient high point in Paris 🙃

What a fascinating project! Basically, wind turbines have gotten taller and taller over time (thanks to better turbines). This is the next level.
