Effect of tower base painting on willow ptarmigan collision rates with wind turbines
Stokke, Bård Gunnar; Nygård, Torgeir; Falkdalen, Ulla; Pedersen, Hans Christian; May, Roelof Frans (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)1. Birds colliding with turbine rotor blades is a well-known negative consequence of wind-power plants. However, there has been far less attention to the risk of birds colliding with the turbine towers, and how to mitigate ... -
Paint it black: Efficacy of increased wind turbine rotor blade visibility to reduce avian fatalities
May, Roelof Frans; Nygård, Torgeir; Falkdalen, Ulla; Åström, Jens; Hamre, Øyvind; Stokke, Bård Gunnar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)As wind energy deployment increases and larger wind-power plants are considered, bird fatalities through collision with moving turbine rotor blades are expected to increase. However, few (cost-) effective deterrent or ... -
