Simulation Analysis and Safety Risk Assessment of a Wind Turbine Blade Failure Event
ABSTRACT A common concern raised during the permitting of onshore wind farms is the potential risk posed by the release of failed turbine blades. Although there has been extensive analysis of blade throw risk based on simulated trajectories, there is a lack of empirical data with which to calibrate models and assess the true risk to public safety. This

Flight behaviour was highly variable. Flights occurred during all weather conditions at different altitudes throughout the day over the entire season. Further research into the relationship between flight behaviour, weather variables, collisions and other factors is needed as a basis for developing shutdown regimes generally suitable for raptors.

Our methodology is readily applicable to other regions where offshore wind (OSW) development is planned and songbird migration is common, allowing research and monitoring activities to be targeted to species most likely to be negatively affected by OSW facility encounters. Abstract As offshore wind (OSW) energy expands globally, migratory songbirds are

Our findings stress the potential cumulative impacts to migrating birds from large‐scale offshore wind energy development in the North Sea by 2030 relative to wind farm energy production. The combination of long‐term bird ringing data and LCAs, which are already widely used by industry in other contexts, could be a useful tool for comparing potential ...
