How dangerous is wind power equipment?

In the early 1970s, human beings encountered an oil crisis, and limited fossil energy could not gradually satisfy human development, so renewable and clean energy returned to human vision. Among them, wind power with the simplest working principle was favored by people, and China also Continue to spend to support the development of the wind power industry.

Wind power generation refers to converting the kinetic energy of wind into electric energy. Wind is a kind of energy without pollution. Using wind power to generate electricity is very environmentally friendly and can generate huge electric energy. Therefore, more and more countries pay more attention to wind power generation.

Wind power has huge reserves. The global wind energy is about 2.74×10^9MW, of which the available wind energy is 2×10^7MW, which is 10 times larger than the total amount of water energy that can be developed and utilized on the earth. Wind has been exploited for a long time - mainly through windmills to pump water, grind flour, etc., and now people are interested in how to use wind to generate electricity.

In the past, wind power was often praised by the public and experts as a new type of clean energy, but now European and American countries are dismantling their own wind turbines in large numbers and continuously. But compared to the large-scale demolition in Europe and the United States, China has been building it with all its strength in recent years? So how dangerous is wind power?

First: In the area of ​​wind power generation, the noise is relatively large, because the "power blades" used in wind power generation are very huge, and there will definitely be noise from the sound of rotation, so it is noise pollution.

Second: the impact on birds, large-scale annual migration of birds is not uncommon. The most typical example is the United States. After the establishment of wind power generation in the United States, the grouse in Kansas, the United States, has gradually disappeared, and is even on the verge of extinction.

Third: It has a certain degree of influence on the local climate. Researchers from Harvard University in the United States said that wind farms in the United States have affected the local climate. The rotation of wind farm fans has driven the replacement of high-temperature air in the upper layer and low-temperature air in the lower layer, and pointed out that the local temperature has increased by about 0.5 degrees Celsius, enhancing the Greenhouse effect.

So in some European and American countries, they began to dismantle wind power generation equipment. Will China's full-scale construction have an impact on local birds, climate and regions?

In fact, China has already considered many problems when building wind turbines. In order to deal with these problems, China has assessed the environment in the early stage of wind power construction, and started construction only when the environment is harmonious. It will be far away from factories in residential areas, etc., which fully meets the country's rigid requirements for safe distance and noise control of wind farms.

And for China's development, wind power is still one of the roads that China must take, so we don't have to worry about a series of impacts from wind power, our country has already controlled it to a minimum.
