The purpose is to investigate if the method can contribute to reducing the risk of birds getting injured by colliding with the turbine blades. The study has already started and is expected to run until the end of 2024. This year a baseline measurement will be done. Next year, the blades will be painted and for two years, the turbines be monitored whether that has an impact on the number of bird collisions. In... ... More: Official Press Release Vattenfall
