  1. (archive: 2018) Wind energy in Germany and Europe – Status, potentials and challenges for baseload application – Developments in Germany since 2010 : In Germany the installed nominal capacity of all wind turbines has increased eightfold over the last 16 years to 50,000 megawatts today. In the 18 most important European countries using wind energy today, the nominal capacity rose by twelve times to more than 150,000 megawatts. One essential… wind-watch.org/documents/wind-

  12. (archive: 2016) Multiple mortality events in bats: a global review: Despite conservation concerns for many species of bats, factors causing mortality in bats have not been reviewed since 1970. Here, we review and qualitatively describe trends in the occurrence and apparent causes of multiple mortality events (MMEs) in bats around the world. We compiled a database of MMEs, defined as cases in which ≥ 10 dead bats were counted or estimated at a… wind-watch.org/documents/multi

  18. Knox Co wind energy project halted due to permit delays : The Knox County Wind project was shut down after a federal order delayed permits. It began last month and was expected to bring 300 construction jobs and generate more than 40-million-dollars in tax revenue for Knox County. Pentagon officials say the permits have been withheld to ensure the project doesn’t hinder national security or military operations. wind-watch.org/news/2026/05/13

  21. Interesting Kickstarter project for the off-grid crowd. PREP is a portable wind turbine — 250W, 6 lbs, backpack-sized. Automatically aligns to wind direction with a patent-pending finless yaw system.

    Solar is great but doesn't work at night. This fills that gap: kickstarter.com/projects/43819

  39. Council seeks legal review of wind farm approval : A council is seeking a judicial review of a government decision to approve a wind farm in the south of Scotland. The Scottish government’s energy consents unit (ECU) granted planning permission for eight turbines up to 200m (656ft) tall at Ditcher Law near Oxton in February. It overruled Scottish Borders Council which formally objected to the plans citing the adverse impact on local people and… wind-watch.org/news/2026/05/12
