β¦ Synopsis
Wind energy is one of the most attractive sources of renewable energy (one reason being it is one of the most proven of all sustainable energy technologies, second only to hydropower).
It is not surprising, therefore, that the number of on and offshore wind farms is rising. Technology risk for new and unproven turbines, ground and/or sea conditions and inclement weather are still important considerations. P , Masons, UK provide a lawyers' perspective on risk control and operation & maintenance strategies in onshore and offshore wind.
Overall, risks will vary from project to project, however the site and location of a wind farm is a vital determinant.
