Neither of those image is from Vermont!
And they are 1.5MW turbines, outdated even for onshore wind turbines.

What BS! You are just making sh*t up at this point.
These images are of the Georgia Mountain Wind turbine project in Milton Vermont. They are part of a local community project. Wind and solar projects are scaled accordingly to support mostly smaller cities, towns and communities here, although our larger cities benefit as well. We are a small state where such massive wind turbines would be inappropriate and unsuitable.

Some wind projects here go back more than 20 years like the Searsburg Wind Farm which was a modest first toe in the water for wind power here back in 1997. It includes eleven 550 kW wind turbines that produce 6 MW wind that provides electricity for 1,704 Vermont households. It was built as an educational and research facility by Green Mountain Power to determine the long term viability of wind power in Vermont. It is still online and just because any renewable project here is older tech nobody is going to throw it in the garbage. Newer, larger and more powerful turbines have come later. Renewables here in Vermont in recent years have focused mostly on a massive build out of large solar installations along with wind and Canadian hydro from Quebec with whom we share a border.
Your petty trolling over such things as size of wind turbines is absolutely adolescent. I almost feel embarrassed for you to witness such childish behavior time and again.
