Other advantages: Windmills are vulnerable to disruption by anyone with a zodiac and some semtex, not to mention they have transmission issues of their own.
A space-based solution has a far higher cost to threaten; you basically need to have ASAT weaponry and that's (at least for now) somewhat out of the reach of non-state actors. Not to mention a space-solar satellite would have enough onboard power for some fairly aggressive countermeasures.
Edit: grammar
