Tall structures can obstruct flying and affect aviation safety when in the vicinity of an aerodrome and penetrate the obstacle limitation surfaces. Also they can be an En-Route obstacle when located between flying destinations . Examples of Tall Structures The term tall structure includes tall buildings, television (TV) masts, power plant chimneys, radar…
An initial Ministry of Defence (MOD) objection does not always mean that a wind turbine will not happen. Detailed technical analysis and discussions with the MOD can often resolve initial concerns and enable the co-existence of wind turbines and radar. This is the case for a single 500kW turbine to…
Power Crisis in South Africa Renewable energy development is important in South Africa. The country is facing a power shortage and their power utility Eskom has had to resort to ‘load shedding’, which means switching off the electricity supply, as a result . Renewable Energy Potential South Africa has…
In a follow up to a recent case study presented in the news article titled ‘Real life examples of glint and glare issues – dwellings’, a resident in Ailsworth, Peterborough, has now had their rooftop solar panels removed after complaints from a neighbouring dwelling regarding solar glare towards an upstairs…
In January 2015 Alpha Wind Energy (AWE) applied for leasing from the United States (US) Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) for two offshore floating wind farms off the coast off the Hawaiian island of Oahu. Combined, the two wind farms would have a generating capacity of over 800MW. They…
TV Signals as a Radar Alternative As strange as it sounds, signals from TV transmitters could potentially be used to track aeroplanes instead of radar systems. The process is being explored by NATS following a proof of concept, which NATS conducted in partnership with Thales ATM (a radar…
Amarenco, an independent investment company established in 2013, has secured an investor for a multi-million euro solar photovoltaic (PV) development scheme in Ireland. Amarenco’s business involves ‘raising capital for long term investment in utility scale Solar PV infrastructure assets and adding value in the origination, structuring, financing and ultimate asset…
Cyrrus has developed its Smartener™ system for eliminating the effects of wind turbines on radar. The system compares data from existing radar and known wind turbine positions to determine whether radar returns originate from aircraft or wind turbines. Aircraft returns are displayed whereas wind turbine returns are not. How does…
