I have even camped out and slept beneath a number of turbines, I have slept
in a cabin 850m from a
wind farm on two nights and
in an abandoned house
near another
wind farm, so that I could get first - hand experience.
A study of bat deaths at a local
wind farm by the University of Calgary reported by Science Daily found that the majority of migratory bats
in this location were killed because a sudden drop
in air pressure
near the blades caused injuries to the bats» lungs known as barotrauma.
A 3,000 - megawatt
wind farm in the early planning stages
in South Dakota,
near the Iowa border, is 10 times the size of the Oregon / Washington
wind farm.
A new study by the
Wind Energy and Solar Energy Resources Evaluation Centre, run by China's Meteorological Administration, put the near - shore wind resource at 200 GW, at depths of 2 — 25 meters, which are ideal for in - shore and inter-tidal wind farms, the latter being in coastal areas that are submerged during flood tides but exposed during ebb ti

In the Global Warming Policy Foundation lecture on Wednesday, Mr Paterson said of
wind farms that «this paltry supply of onshore
wind, nowhere
near enough to hit the 2050 targets, has devastated landscapes, blighted views, divided communities, killed eagles...».
I covered a lot of
wind - related stories
in my career, including the 2012 opening of the Halkirk
wind farm in Paintearth County, Alberta's largest
wind generation facility at the time as well as Ikea's purchase of a
wind farm near Pincher Creek, their first - ever North American investment
in renewable energy.
This is particularly true when «
wind farm» developers propose to build the large windmills
near homes or
in other areas where the large, industrial machines are incompatible with current land uses and activities.

Although the environmental community supports
wind power
in general, large
wind farms near populated areas tend to generate substantial local opposition, often from staunch environmentalists.
