Wind power

Why is installing wind turbines attractive? make a statement that wind energy is an attractive and environmentally sensible option for a town Potential cost savings in electricity insuring more stable electricity costs over the lifetime of the project

Obstacles with wind energy development The value of energy is an important consideration in every wind energy project because it has direct impact on the project’s economics Hull considered building more wind turbines but the cost of building the new turbines was to high to gain benefit to the residents of hull – the taxpayers would be paying more then the new turbines would be making.

Issues with current Wind turbine Noise level In Mary 2012 the Wine turbines were shut off in Falmouth because of the many complaints of residents living in close proximity to the turbines Some home owners near wind turbines are also say the wind turbines are creating health issues

How to make wind turbines more effective Make the turbines more cost effective so the residents of a community are receiving benefits through lower electricity costs Make the turbines so the noise level is at a minimum
