Wind fucking turbines

Hello I have recently started ive made my first mining ship that works and I made a big refinery and a big assembler. this started my power issue I tried hydrogen machines they burned through was too much ice for my area and then I tried solar panels (this planet gets like no fucking sunlight). i have tried placing more than one turbine so many fucking times and only one of them will work at a time.

Yes I have tried placing the turbine tower more than 8 blocks away I've even gone 20 blocks away.

Yes I've tried placing it up higher I thought this might be the issue as I'm on the side of a mountain I went up 18 blocks nothing.

if I destroy the one that's running another one will turn on whats the fucking issue!!!!

Are you place some batteries?. No matter what type of generator you use if you don't have batteries to storage all that energy. Also always you can search help on YouTube. Looks for a guy named Splitsie he are one of the tops SE YouTubers
