U.S. Wind Turbine Database
The United States Wind Turbine Database (USWTDB) provides the locations of land-based and offshore wind turbines in the United States, corresponding wind project information, and turbine technical
Land use
This page provides information about the allocation of Crown land resources for wind power.
Wind Turbines on PA116 Land
Options are available for personal wind turbine ownership, secondary-party wind turbine ownership, and withdrawal of the land from P.A. 116 for public utilities.
Dynamic land use implications of rapidly expanding and evolving wind
Here, we investigate how wind technology development and innovation have shaped landscape interactions with social and ecological systems within the United States and contribute to
Land-Use Requirements of Modern Wind Power Plants in the
In this report, we provide data and analysis of the land use associated with modern, large wind power plants (defined as greater than 20 megawatts (MW) and constructed after 2000).
Wind Power
This Wind Power policy applies to the disposition of Crown land for the various components of a wind power project including: wind turbines, maintenance buildings, other plant facilities, road(s),
Land Use Requirements of Modern Wind Power Plants in the United
The analysis discusses standard land-use metrics as established in the life-cycle assessment literature, and then discusses their applicability to wind power plants.
Land use and turbine technology influences on wind potential in the
We compile localized regulatory information and use high-resolution data to present multiple siting regimes covering relatively constrained to unconstrained potentials. Our efforts reveal
Siting and Permitting Wind Projects
Understand the complexities of siting and permitting wind energy projects, including federal and state regulations, environmental reviews, and strategies to address community concerns and opposition.
