considerably in the risk they pose to birds. Some wind turbines don't appear to kill any birds, while others are believed to kill as many as 40 birds per turbine per year. Though these reports tell us 7) about the total number of birds killed, they do tell us that steps can be take...
Birders get nervous when they see landscapes covered in wind turbines (涡轮机).When the wind gets going,their blades (叶片) can turn around at well over 200km per hour.It is easy to imagine careless birds getting cut into pieces and wind turbines do indeed kill at least some birds.But ...
And newer turbine designs, such as those without lattice frames and with vertical-axis rotors, can reduce the deadly impact that wind turbines have on bird populations worldwide. It's working at Altamont: Modernizing older turbines and placing them away from certain corridors has reduced the death...
Wind turbine, apparatus used to convert the kinetic energy of wind into electricity. Wind turbines come in several sizes, with small-scale models used for providing electricity to rural homes or cabins and community-scale models used for providing electr
Surprisingly, what stands out from the coverage in the first GWPF report is the relatively low level of bird strikes detected in some of the studies. Oliver Krüger, who was involved with thePROGRESSstudy of land-based wind turbine impacts on birds in northern Germany, notes that “after ...
Wind turbines are surprisingly quiet, considering their size. Most of them placed at a distance would blend into the natural noise of trees, wind, and birds chirping, and they would be hardly recognizable to your ears. A wind turbine at a specified distance of around 400 yards would make le...
