By Samuel Wycherley Wind turbines have always been a controversial issue. They are often considered noisy and a blight on the landscape. However, there are many of these structures in some parts of the country, such as Cornwall, and also many offshore. Somerset, contrarily, has relatively few, although there are many solar panel Installations to be found. Per turbine, wind turbines produce a fair amount of electricity – only a few would be needed to provide for the whole of Merriott. They are also, unlike solar power, well suited to Britain, after all, Britain is the second windiest country in Europe, after the Netherlands. Wind turbines are also very efficient, with a theoretical efficiency of 59 per cent (of all energy in the wind). However, many are against wind turbines, seeing them as noisy (noise levels are usually similar to that of traffic), and damaging to the landscape. The MoD also often prevents their installation, as wind turbine blades interfere with radio communi- cations. The ‘carbon footprint’ resulting from the production of the turbines is generally high also, so they are not as ‘green’ as they may seem. My personal view is that we should see more of them in South Somerset. The European Union has set a renewable energy target for the U.K. for 2020, and wind turbines will be an effective way of achieving this. After all, would you prefer a wind farm or a coal-fired power station near your house?

    Rights of Way Improvement Plan 2 WWW.SOMERSET.GOV.UK WELCOME TO THE 2ND SOMERSET RIGHTS OF WAY IMPROVEMENT PLAN Public Rights of Way are more than a valuable recreational resource - they are also an important asset in terms of the rural economy, tourism, sustainable transport, social inclusion and health and well being. The public rights of way network is key to enabling residents and visitors alike to access services and enjoy the beauty of Somerset’s diverse natural and built environment. Over the next few years, the focus is going to be chiefly on performing our statutory duties.
