AWEA Wind Project Siting Seminar

The AWEA Wind Project Siting Seminar provides a deep examination of the development of wind energy facilities, the potential for impacts to both the natural and human environments resulting from these activities, and ways to avoid and minimize any adverse effects. Attend this essential event and explore issues related to wildlife interactions, sound and visual impacts, radar, cultural resources, and stakeholder engagement. 

Why is this Seminar Important?

Siting is a vital step in the development process of a wind project, and is designed to identify and address potential risks early-on that can lead to costly delays and hurdles during the permitting process and through construction and operations. Through proper siting techniques, a developer can identify the project risks and take the necessary steps to avoid them, thereby increasing the probably of successfully completing the project on time and under budget. The siting process also helps to avoid wildlife and human environment impacts that can affect operations and ultimately the revenue stream at a later date.
