Wind Energy

Are there any risks for safety respectively health?

Compared to other energy generation technologies, wind power is in general one of the safest ways to produce electricity. No emissions are produced during operation and it is extremely unlikely that people are harmed through fires, collapse or other forms of turbine destruction. Wind turbines are highly reliable systems with very low failure rates of the components. Safety equipment such as lightning protection, fire suppression systems, electrical grounding etc. is installed in every wind turbine. Health and safety regulations are strictly followed at all times during construction and operation of the Wind Farm Konikablo.

Is farming still possible within the wind farm area

Yes, this is one of the main tasks we folllow-up in parallel: We will encourage and support that the local farmers will strengthen their activities and grow crops and grass cattles between the turbines.
