Win-win for wind energy and eagles

06 January 2021

By BES Press Office

Researchers create new tool that allows wind turbine developers to minimise risk of collisions with eagles. The findings are published in the Journal of Applied Ecology. https://www.britishecologicalsociety.org/win-win-for-wind-energy-and-eagles/
