Where to Build a Wind Farm?

In my opinion, the best place to build a hint erect in Cumbria is off the shore of Allonby. This is because it has a lot of advantages which suit it, for be the best place to build a locomote leaven as of its location and ingenious ideology behind it. Moreover, it is an offshore gratuity farm, which content that it will benefit a lot of homes, as at the sea it is extremely roamy. Thus, a lot of electrical brawniness is generated, providing a lot of electricity than usual. However, well-nigh good deal would say that, because it is near a town, itll be real noisy and distracting to tourists and residents, and will even be an eyesore. On the contrary, the tip farm will be 3 metres a mien from the land, so thither is the least(prenominal) possibility of noise pollution and intervention. Further much, some people think that wind farms ar quite attractive to look at and would be meddling about them when going on holiday. This would bring more than tourists to Allonby and make it more popular are helps the economy by bringing more jobs to Allonby such as information centre employees. This would educate the future generations to elaborate more of wind nil and alternative sources, to help the worlds situation.Also, beingness it the sea, there is a lot of space to build a wind farm, as there are no other possible variables that could claim it and the decision to build a wind farm would be eliminated. However, there is the issue of it being in the sea so there is the difficulty of accessing the wind farm in the first place, if any problems arise with it. If something occurred and there was no way of fixing it as it is in the sea, then the homes and appliances relying on this wind energy, would be without power and would be very disappointed a major problem.Notwithstanding, this issue base be sorted out, as it is cordial by either a boat or a whirlybird to try and sort the problem out. However, it wont be perfect, and sometimes issues whitetho rn arise, so the politics needs to think of other ways of access. In addition, the next best choice to build a wind farm would capture been, Caldbeck Fells. This is because, it had a lot of advantages as Allonby, however it had some minor points which proved it to be less worthy and eliminated it. Firstly, Caldbeck Fells is on steep exposed land which pith there is a lot of wind available, which tooshie power a lot of homes in Cumbria and electrical appliances.Also, it is a remote area, meaning no one will be perturbed or disturbed by it and it will prove beneficial. Exceedingly, it is accessible by unsophisticated lanes, so if something goes wrong, the maintenance team shadow access it by car. However, a major factor let it down, which was the fact that it is just outside a national park, and a national park is preserved for outstanding immanent beauty. People say that, if a wind farm were to be construct here, then people would be repelled by it and will not pack to vi sit it and it may mean the obstruction of birds, wildlife, ecosystems and scenery.However, to reiterate some people may like the idea of watching wind farms, as assure in Scotland suggests that 8 out of 10 people have said, they would fatality to find out more about it. Also, it would have made the field of study Park more popular. Unfortunately, in my opinion, it may be a hurt to the fact of, that it may upset ecosystems and wildlife so many ornithologists, animal well-being support groups may protest, demolishing the request to build. Additionally, there were many sites that couldve satisfactory for wind farm building, but had a lot of negative factors.Some sites have a lot of space to build wind farms and have a lot of wind availability, so a lot of electricity can be generated like Burgh by Sands. However, it has marshland, and a wind farm cannot be built as of its instability and it is close to a city (Carlisle) which means that, it can possibly disturb tourism activity or affix it, and create noise problems. Also, it would obstruct birds, ecosystems and plants. Besides, Anthorn was on the coast and had some roads, so cars can get through for maintenance, however it had some radio masts and it would put in with radio signals and be an additional eyesore. Moreover, Skiddaw couldve had the winning chance, but some factors bound it. It had high ground and plenty of spaces, as there were essentially no buildings and it would not affect anyone in terms of noise, as it was on a high mountain. However, it is part of the Lake District and the famous town Bassenthwaite is next to it and it can be very unattractive. However, as it being closer to a town, it can provide jobs. Albeit, it cannot be accessible to any transport, as it will be high on a mountain but a helicopter can be the solution.However, the problem cannot be sorted out as thorough. Wind energy is an excellent alternative energy source, as it doesnt harm the environment it just uses wind t o drive the turbines, which spin virtually to drive the generator to generate electricity. As for crude oil color and fogy fuels, they are running out and also harm the environment. However, this clean energy can very easily be generated. UK has a lot of wind energy up in its highlands, so is ideal for this and wind energy on average provides 2200 GW of energy which is essential for homes, instead than power stations.However, there is not nice land sometimes or not enough wind to drive these turbines which can create an issue and powerless homes sometimes. So, the government is planning to build offshore wind farms 3 metres off land, which are ideal as here is constantly a lot of wind, generating split up of electricity. It would be ideal to choose offshore wind energy rather than expensive crude oil, as wind energy is renewable and low-priced in means of one erected wind turbine can power thousands of homes, and is renewable so will not run out.Coastal wind farms, also augm ent tourist activity and are known as peaceful. Momentarily, there is a lot of issue over global warming and crude oil running out. There are issues of sustaining wind power stations in the UK. In my opinion, I believe that, offshore wind farms are the way forward for UK as it will not be any obstruction. However, the government may want to look into other alternatives such as geothermic energy, tidal wave energy as of a lot of coastal areas. Also, the issue of nuclear power can be looked into, however it may hazardous if something wrong occurs.
