Wind turbines are very noisy and very disturbing. What can be done effectively?
There are two types of noise produced by wind turbines. One is the noise generated by the generator transmission chain in the unit cabin, and the other is the rotation of the blades. Noise produced by sweeping air currents.
Nowadays, the tower height of wind turbines is generally more than 80 meters. According to my personal experience at the wind farm, the sound of the generator transmission chain in the cabin is very small or inaudible under the unit. The louder sound is the sound of the blades.
If it is just an ordinary sound of blades sweeping the wind, there is no way to solve this. However, some blades have problems or are broken, and the blades will whistle. This is a fault point and can be solved by repairing or replacing the blades.
In addition, when the cabin yaws, some unit malfunctions will make a loud yaw sound. That means the yaw is broken. This can be solved by repairing and replacing the yaw pad or friction plate and other parts of the unit. .
Of course, no matter which of the above, you can complain if the noise generated disturbs residents. The project must pass an environmental assessment before construction, and the environmental assessment includes noise. Report noise complaints to relevant environmental departments. Those departments will come to the wind farm to inspect or supervise, and they will at least solve the problem, such as repairing broken units in a timely manner.
