Myth: Wind farms produce too little energy

Wind farms

  • Only one turbine with a power of 2 MW at a good location produces enough energy to supply up to 2000 households.
  • Croatia imports between 20% and 30% of its electricity.
  • It is expected that the price of electricity obtained from wind farms will be around the year 2010 competitive with the electricity obtained from other sources.
  • In areas such as islands, for example, wind farms contribute to a secure supply.
  • On islands wind farms can be used very efficient for the desalination of water.
  • It is predicted that wind will be the main source for obtaining the fuel of the future (hydrogen).

10 MYTHS ABOUT WIND ENERGY


MYTH:
The turbine blades are dangerous for birds

FACT:
Wind farms are not constructed in areas known as the migration paths of birds.
The biggest danger for birds and their populations are the climate changes.
There are no facts stating that a wind farm has caused any major damaging effect on birds, larger than any building or airport for example.
Scientists that understand the ecology of birds participate in the designing and construction of wind farms.
