Renewable Wind Industry Challenges

Ideal wind sites are often in remote locations. Installation challenges must be overcome to bring electricity from wind farms to urban areas, where it is needed to meet demand. Upgrading  the  nation’s  transmission  network  to  connect  areas  with  abundant wind resources to population centres could significantly reduce the costs of expanding land-based wind  energy.  In  addition, offshore  wind  energy  transmission  and  grid  interconnection capabilities are improving.

Turbines produce noise and alter visual aesthetics. Wind farms have different impacts on the environment compared to conventional power plants, but similar concerns exist over both the noise produced by the turbine blades and the visual impacts on the landscape.

Wind farms can impact local wildlife. Although wind projects rank lower than other energy developments in terms of wildlife impacts, research is still needed to minimize wind-wildlife interactions. Advancements  in  technologies, properly  siting  wind  plants,  and  ongoing environmental research are working to reduce the impact of wind turbines on wildlife.

The aforementioned challenges are the generally acknowledged ones currently facing the renewable wind industry. 

However, there are a number of major problems that would appear to have either gone unnoticed or have been minimised by various bodies, and it is worthwhile bringing them to the forefront of this document due to their gravity, as they could have apocalyptic consequences.

Despite what governments and various other bodies may think or say, current independent projections  show  that  renewable  wind,  using  current  Wind  Turbine  designs  will comprehensively fail to achieve the 2030/2050 global renewable wind energy targets.
