Unique study: birds avoid wind turbine blades

Seabirds deliberately avoid wind turbine rotor blades offshore – that is the main finding of a new study that mapped the flightpaths of thousands of birds around wind turbines in the North Sea. Most importantly, during two years of monitoring using cameras and radar, not a single bird was recorded colliding with a rotor blade.

The risk of birds colliding with wind turbine blades is sometimes used as an argument against the use of wind power.  Now, a new report – the most comprehensive and technologically advanced in the field to date – shows that seabirds off the UK coast are better at avoiding wind turbine blades than previously thought.   Using radar and cameras, researchers were able to monitor how birds behaved in the Aberdeen bay in... ...
