In "real life" I sell quick closing/fuel tank shut off valves. My supplier says they regularly sell these to wind mills because they have a 1,000 gallon tank of diesel fuel inside them to run a generator for start up in idle time.
Probably what's burning in the picture.

Historians will look back on the Green New Deal and make jokes of how dumb we were to throw $Trillions at wind and solar projects. Solar makes a bit more sense to me, but can never reach the scale to replace a high percentage of the energy we get from fossil fuels.
