Re: Alternative Fuel Sources in the European Union (none / 1)

Windmills can give interference with radio, radar and other telecommunication equipement. I do not have more info on it yet, but I know there is a professor at the university of Leuven (Belgium) who is often asked to perform measurements because he has the proper equipement. Such a report is a legal condition in Belgium for windmills.

That would be interesting to see, I can't believe windmills interfere with radio signals (maybe only adjacent buildings?)

Be careful! Is it classified?

A recent document(pdf) describes some problems in Canada.

Re: Alternative Fuel Sources in the European Union (none / 0)

I just read through through the file. I didn't expect non-metal bladed turbines to cause interference as well. Then again, maybe if they are metal and properly grounded, they won't reflect the radio signal but absorb it?

Be careful! Is it classified?

I add a link to a British study on radar interference.
