  • Does not emit polluting gases or generate waste;
  • Decreases greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
  • Wind farms are compatible with other land uses and uses such as agriculture and cattle raising;
  • Job creation;
  • Generation of investment in less favored areas;
  • Financial benefits (landowners and council areas).

Main disadvantages of wind power

  • Intermittence, ie the wind does not always blow when electricity is needed, making it difficult to integrate its production into the exploration program;
  • It can be overcome with fuel cells (H2) or with the technique of hydroelectric pumping.
  • Causes considerable visual impact, especially for the surrounding residents, the installation of wind farms generates a major landscape modification;
  • Impact on the local birds: mainly due to the shock of the birds on the paddles, unknown effects on the modification of their usual migration behaviors;
  • Sound impact: The sound of the wind hits the blades producing a constant noise (43 dB (A)). The nearest dwellings or residential areas should be at least 200 meters away.
