MOD lifts objections to wind energy projects
The British Wind Energy Association (BWEA) has welcomed an agreement that has seen the Ministry of Defence (MOD) lift its objections to a number of wind energy projects in southern Scotland. Following discussions between the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), MOD and Scottish Executive, a solution has been found to concerns that wind farms planned near the Eskdalemuir seismic array could interfere with the array?s role in monitoring the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty.


UK: Renewable Energy world Article : Hydrogen The Last Word
In a recent article in Renewable Energy World, entitled ?Hydrogen, The Last Word? (March-April 2004), Dr Ulf Bossel appears to be precluding any debate, despite the fallacies inherent in his arguments. Dr Bossel?s illustration of the high efficiency of wind generated electricity obscures the first basic principle that the grid does not store electricity. The big sources of renewable energy, wind, solar, tidal or wave energy are all variable in supply and will be dependent on hydrogen storage to maintain an economic load factor. If supplies of renewable energy are not available, then back up from the national grid, which in the UK is only 35% efficient, will be required.


Wind Energy Part of a Sustainable Future
Environmental News Network: Recently, I wrote an editorial in New Scientist magazine about the "not-in-my-backyard" approach some people and groups have adopted in regards to wind farms. It caused quite a fuss. Apparently, some wind energy developers used the article as a blanket endorsement that all proposed wind farms should be allowed to proceed - as though I was arguing the need for wind energy trumpets all other concerns. I said no such thing. Wind energy is an important part of a ...


Wind is NZ's fastest growing energy industry
New Zealand has the best wind energy resource in the world and can produce electricity from the wind at prices second to none, the Seventh Annual New Zealand Power Summit was told today. Speaking at the conference the Chief Executive of the New Zealand Wind Energy Association (NZWEA), James Glennie, said that wind energy was cost-effective, against every other form of electricity generation.
