Developer) (SPR) to Burnley Borough Council (BBC) for the dismantling of the current windfarm at Coal Clough and the erection of eight no. wind turbines and associated infrastructure on the site which the current Coal Clough windfarm occupies. The Development for which planning permission is now sought, comprising both the decommissioning of the existing windfarm and the construction of the new windfarm, is to be known as Coal Clough Windfarm Repowering (“the Development”).

  • Wind Turbine Experiences Survey 2012
    Wind Turbine experiences 2012 survey results Introduction The Government’s commitment to renewable energy has meant a large increase in the number of wind farms and domestic turbines over the last few years. In 1995, in response to the Government seeking guidance, the BHS recommended that there should be a distance of at least 200m between a turbine and the nearest off-road equestrian route, which was supported by the Countryside Commission at the time. However, this was based on turbine heights of less than 60 metres and by 1998 there were already applications for turbines of 100m, so the BHS urged Government to revise its guidance to an appropriate formula of three times the height of the turbine with an absolute minimum of 200 metres. Although the three times height was accepted by the Countryside Agency, the Government’s guidance was not revised. The Agency went further and proposed that four times the height be recommended for national trails and promoted equestrian routes on the basis that these are likely to be used by horses unfamiliar with turbines. Government guidance up to July 2013 said: “The British Horse Society ... has suggested a 200 metre exclusion zone around bridle paths to avoid wind turbines frightening horses. Whilst this could be deemed desirable, it is not a statutory requirement ...”. In many cases, this separation distance was adopted as reasonable; however, the latest Government guidance does not specifically refer to horses and says: "Other than when dealing with set back distances for safety, distance of itself does not necessarily determine whether the impact of a proposal is unacceptable." The latest BHS guidance, revised as a result of this survey, gives a number of factors which increase the impact of wind turbines on equestrian access and which should increase the set back distance.

Development prospects of offshore and land-based wind energy production are described. Selected aspects involved in the design, construction, and operation of offshore wind power plant construction and operation are presented. The aim of this study was to analyze and compare the environmental impact of offshore and land-based wind power plants. Life cycle assessment analysis of 2-MW offshore and land wind power plants was made with the use of Eco-indicator 99 modeling. The results were compared in four areas of impact in order to obtain values of indexes for nonergonomic (impact on/by operator), nonfunctional (of/on the product), nonecological (on/by living objects), and nonsozological impacts (on/by manmade objects), reflecting the extent of threat to human health, the environment, and natural resources. The processes involved in extraction of fossil fuels were found to produce harmful emissions which in turn lead to respiratory system diseases being, thus, extremely dangerous for the natural environment.
