Fine What is Built to Help You

I was very confused when I read this. We find this technology to bring electricity through something that happens very naturally and relentlessly, the wind. So a company builds a large number of wind turbines in a place that is naturally windy due to flatness from a glacier and they didn’t get the right kind of okay. So now we want to fine them for supplying electricity to 60,000 homes because of this technicality. I think it’s wrong and disappointing. Why can’t they make them pay taxes or some other form of money but at least let then continue to benefit society in a new technology that is clean and doesn’t require any kind of production, it is the wind after all, why can’t they keep it? I think $200,000 may be enough to seriously injure a company and put it on it's back since its so new. Ridiculous!
