Effects of Beipiao Wind Power Development Planning on Local Birds Ecosystem

Article Preview

Abstract:

Liaoning Beipiao is located in "Three north" wind zone which is one of the regions rich in wind energy resources in China. The area is windy throughout the year suitable for wind energy development and utilization. For the next 12 years, Beipiao government plans to construct 16 key wind energy resource development areas. However, the planning wind farms are located in Liaoxi Corridor for birds migrating must pass by. The wind farm may generate adverse effects to migratory bird ecology in Beipiao. The basic characteristic of bird ecological system in Beipiao area is introduced in the paper. The adverse effects of wind farm on birds and answer measures are discussed as well.
