EU-level Policy Response to Current Energy Security Issues: Discussion
Dr. Paul Deane:
The challenge with smaller wind turbines is that they tend to rotate a lot quicker. They tend to be a little bit louder so good wind speeds and good neighbours are needed. They tend to be more suitable to rural locations with more open space. Again, this is because they tend to be a little bit more intrusive than solar panels which are a lot more passive.
