Wind Energy

This recorded session presents a case study from the UK illustrating how site constraints and multi-jurisdictional regulations influence the siting of wind energy projects. The presenter walks through the project development process. It presents sequential site constraint maps with discussion regarding the constraint highlighted and its effects on the final wind turbine siting. It discusses the intersection of siting with setback, noise, signal interference, and shadow flicker standards.
