Benefits and Backlashes

Benefits

*Clean*Cost competitive *Renewable*Local*Reliable and efficient

Backlashes

*Noise pollution *Space for turbines

Page 13: Wind Energy

Positive and

Negative effect on the the ecosystem

Positive effects

*No fuel burnt*No air/water pollution

Negative effects

*Bats/birds killed*Visual pollution

Page 14: Wind Energy

Which investments are to be made?

*Expensive materials*Time*Money

Page 15: Wind Energy

What about the future?

*34% more wind energy than now*Prices go down

Page 16: Wind Energy

Why is this a good

example of a r renewable energy

source?

Because the wind will blow Because the wind will blow as long as the sun shines!as long as the sun shines!
