Wind Harvest is committed to avoiding harm to birds and bats. Ornithologists predict that birds will see and avoid H-type turbines better than they do propeller-type turbines. This hypothesis is due to H-type turbine’s 3-dimensionality and slower-moving blades. We typically install bat and bird high definition camera-based motion detection systems as part of the commitment to avoid harm. These systems enable us to slow down the turbines or stop them entirely if we detect oncoming winged animals.
