The Wind Energy End-of-Service Guide is divided into four sections. The Life of a Turbine section focuses on the service life of a wind turbine, what happens when they reach end of service, the overall recyclability of a project, and what is being done to improve recyclability. The Repowering section focuses on replacing components or full turbines with newer technology, how these activities…

Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM)
The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management’s (BOEM’s) regulations describe the requirements for a COP at Subpart F (30 C.F.R. §§ 585.620 – 585.628). BOEM’s decision to approve, disapprove, or approve with modifications a COP requires environmental reviews and consultations under the National Environmental Policy Act , 42 U.S.C. 4321–4347 (NEPA) and other applicable federal statutes. BOEM typically…

The aim of this Guide is to help companies develop a greater understanding of the components and processes involved in the development of floating offshore wind farms in the UK. The floating offshore wind industry is early in its development, with only a small number of pre-commercial projects installed globally. It is expected to grow significantly, with between 6 and 10 GW of capacity…

The story is very interesting and indicative of our time marked by historical changes in Eastern Europe.The first reports of concentrations of migratory raptors on the western Black Sea Coast are reported by Alleon & Vian (1869, 1870) who have established an intensive migratory migration in the Bosphorus but they do not use the term Via Pontica. In 1930, the great Bulgarian ornithologist,…

Bats are particularly susceptible to anthropogenic changes because of their low reproductive rate, longevity, and high metabolic rates (Voigt and Kingston 2016), limiting their ability to recover from declines (Barclay and Harder 2003). Bat fatalities due to wind turbines raise serious concerns about population-level impacts (Barclay and Harder 2003; Frick et al. 2017). In addition to natural…
