power plants every day become more and more significant, especially in a century when the industry and not ecological power plants threaten to pollute the world to a limit. These stations – a leader of development of eco-friendly effective power sources. However many experts still sound careful doubts, motivating them with the fact that such power plants can destroy the native habitat to isozdavat dangers to birds and flying Mischa. More serious fear is destruction of coastlines and natural beauty of the world. However, many countries use such qualitative power source for a long time and successfully, and stations quite successfully fit into local landscapes.
The wind station San Gorgonio Paz (San Gorgonio Pass) is one of the biggest in California. It develops 615 MV of energy and consists of 3218 turbines.
The floating wind farm, the first in the history of power, began to function just few years ago. It is established near the coast of Norway. Such development is very perspective and will extend in other countries in case of successful work of a prototype.
The wind power plant Mepl Ridge is the biggest in New Yorkei is located in rural areas on the outskirts of the city. Put into operation only in 2006, Mepl Ridzhuzhe develops 75% of all wind energy of the city.
The wind farm of Whitelee was constructed too quite recently and now is the largest in Europe. It is located in Scotland, consists of 140 turbines and produces enough electricity completely to provide them 180,000 houses.
The biggest wind station is Lynn and Inner Dowsing which was started in 2008 in Lincolnshire, England. It produces electricity for 130,000 houses. Its record will be broken by a wind farm of Greater Gabbard soon. When it is started (2011), there will be the biggest in the world.
[br/] it is pleasant to see that in some countries the effective and eco-friendly solutions are successfully used. Let's be will gorge on, the trend over time given will only increase.
