Am I setting this up wrong somehow? The windmill bit never appears.

Doing something wrong with windmill? (screenshots)

You are using the wrong type of windmill blades, for those ones the turbine has to be on the edge of a platform with the hole pointing off.
Kariko nailed it you want the 6 blade vertical one for that lay out. Or you can as he points of move it to the platform edge and turn it on its side. Note the 6 blade vertical will give you more power though so it might be worth crafting a new blade then moving your kentic.
Heh.
Careful, with windmills any block around it for a 9x9x7 area will hinder its production (your Batbox). Also you want to stay below 149 high or the wind can break the windmill.

You should be able to calculate your EU/t:
EU/t = (480 * [height-64]) / 24,000
Ideally, your windmill should just be a 3 block tall copper wire sticking out of the Batbox, with the Windmill on top of the wire. Right now with that platform, you're lowering your effective height (there's no real "wind" in minecraft, the generation algorithm just randomly distributes the EU/day).
But yeah, that is a good idea, building a house/farm in the sky / nowhere. Keep mobs at bay.
