wind turbines has brought clean energy to people, but the U.S. National Research Council released a report on the 3rd that a huge wind farm non-stop paddle rotation is likely to endanger the survival of birds, the songbirds, bats and other nocturnal animals may greater threat.
Reported that the wind power generation in some areas may have adverse ecological effects, such as birds and bats lead to death. But scientists need to spend more time to study, it is not possible to make a final conclusion of this threat.
The study found that in Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland and Pennsylvania that use wind generators areas, bat the number of deaths is higher than other regions.
The report also pointed out that under the present circumstances, wind power did not lead to the total decline in the nation’s birds.
In addition, too much wind power plant may also produce electromagnetic effects, interference to local television and radio signals, affect the use of mobile phones and so on.
National Research Council noted that the United States in 2006 wind power is 11605 MW, less than 1% of the national total, but in the next 15 years, this ratio will rise to 7%.
