Personally, I don't like these monsters; I'm for a couple of Nuclear plants until such time as we develop better options.
Windmills off the coast of Noordwijk. They are planning another set at half the distance, which means double the size. NIMBY syndrome at work.

I didnt know what I would submit for the theme until i saw this leaf on my patio table while I was eating breakfast outside this morning. Leaves are a renewable energy source. Be kind to nature folks. Our lives depend on it. Taken for MM theme "Energy". Be back to comment on the group photos later. HAVE A GREAT DAY!
How Hill on the left from a distance, with Seamer's wind turbines to the right. I believe the small bird to be a wagtail.

A few years ago, my son and his wife gave me some bulbs they had lifted from their property when they moved in. Nothing much happened till this year...they would come up in the Spring but wouldn't bloom. This year there were a few of these double beauties. I looked them up in a catalogue and plan to plant more in the fall.
Spring weather changes have brought plenty of energy and drama to the Washington State landscape. This was the spectacle in the sky a few days ago, about one hour before sunset, in Kittitas County.
Woohoo – Flickr Explore position #21 for March 30th 2012! Thank you for commenting on my images and marking them as your favorites!
Wind Farm is close to completion, all eleven turbines are now in place, I visited the site this evening 8th June 2018 to capture the scene, I have not read any information on the "launch date" when the turbines will be in operation and I see that some of the original cable laying ships and crew transfer vessels are still on site, I will monitor over the next few weeks and upload when it look like a live date is imminent
Planning for the new wind farm at Aberdeen Bay began back in 2003, many news stories and objections later the first turbine was installed April 9th 2018.
Aberdeen Bay Wind Farm is an offshore wind farm to be located around 3 kilometres off the east coast of Aberdeenshire, in the North Sea, Scotland. It is being developed by the European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre consortium.
The scheme consists of 11 wind turbines with an installed capacity of up to 100 megawatts.It is to be located between Blackdog and Bridge of Don near Aberdeen.
Planning
The wind farm was initially proposed by the Aberdeen Renewable Energy Group (AREG) in 2003. The original plan was for 20 two-megawatt turbines in an eight kilometres long row about 1 kilometre offshore. A geological survey of Aberdeen Bay was begun in 2007, and a grant of 40 million euros was offered by the European Commission in 2009.The proposal at that stage was for a maximum of 23 turbines.
A planning application was lodged in August 2011.The application was submitted by Aberdeen Renewable Energy Group (AREG) in cooperation with two other companies, Vattenfall and Technip.
The proposal was for 11 turbines. Planning consent was granted by the Scottish government in March 2013.
In May 2013 Vattenfall announced plans to reduce its stake in the project. In October 2013 Aberdeenshire councillors rejected a planning application to build an electricity substation.
In December 2013 it was announced that construction would be delayed for two years, with connection of the grid occurring in 2017.
In January 2014 an appeal against the substation vote was lodged.The developers won the appeal in July 2014.
Vattenfall decided to proceed with the 92 MW wind farm in July 2016. As of March 2017 the wind farm is planned to consist of 11 turbines each of 8 MW placed 3 km from land with a contract for the assembly of suction bucket foundations for the turbines contracted out to Smulders Projects UK.
The commissioning of the wind farm is planned for the first half of 2018.
First deployment of the 11 innovative turbines for Vattenfall’s European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre marks treble project breakthrough for offshore wind industry
A hat-trick of offshore wind industry firsts has been achieved within a fortnight in North-east Scotland after the world’s most powerful single turbine was successfully installed yesterday (Monday, April 9) for Vattenfall’s ground-breaking European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre (EOWDC).
The turbine is the first of 11 to be deployed at the ground-breaking facility in Aberdeen Bay. In addition, Vattenfall today confirmed that it is one of two turbines that have been significantly enhanced with further internal power modes to generate more clean energy from the EOWDC.
The two turbines have each increased from 8.4MW to 8.8MW and yesterday’s installation represents the first time an 8.8 MW model has been deployed commercially in the offshore wind industry.

World's most powerful wind turbine successfully installed in Scottish waters
First deployment of the 11 innovative turbines for Vattenfall’s European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre marks treble project breakthrough for offshore wind industry
A hat-trick of offshore wind industry firsts has been achieved within a fortnight in North-east Scotland after the world’s most powerful single turbine was successfully installed yesterday (Monday, April 9) for Vattenfall’s ground-breaking European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre (EOWDC).
The turbine is the first of 11 to be deployed at the ground-breaking facility in Aberdeen Bay.
In addition, Vattenfall today confirmed that it is one of two turbines that have been significantly enhanced with further internal power modes to generate more clean energy from the EOWDC. The two turbines have each increased from 8.4MW to 8.8MW and yesterday’s installation represents the first time an 8.8 MW model has been deployed commercially in the offshore wind industry.
Together with the nine 8.4MW turbines, this substantially boosts the EOWDC’s output to 93.2MW. This allows the facility to produce the equivalent of more than 70% of Aberdeen’s domestic electricity demand and annually displace 134,128 tonnes of CO2.
Yesterday’s feat of engineering comes less than two weeks after the first of the EOWDC’s game-changing suction bucket jacket foundations was successfully installed. The EOWDC is the first offshore wind project to deploy the foundations at commercial scale and pairing them with the world’s most powerful turbines represents another industry first.
Gunnar Groebler, Vattenfall’s Head of Business Area Wind, said: “The turbines for the EOWDC, Scotland’s largest offshore wind test and demonstration facility, help secure Vattenfall’s vision to be fossil fuel free within one generation. The EOWDC, through its innovative approach to cost reduction and pioneering technologies, leads the industry drive towards generating clean and competitive wind energy power – one that will reinforce Scotland’s global energy status.”
MHI Vestas has specially designed the V164-8.4 MW and V164-8.8 MW turbines which all have a tip height of 191 metres. Each blade is 80m long - slightly taller than Aberdeen’s Marischal College – and the 164m rotor has a circumference larger than that of the London Eye’s.
EOWDC project director at Vattenfall, Adam Ezzamel, said: “The first turbine installation is a significant achievement and credit to the diligence and engineering know-how of the project team and contractors. For it to be one of the 8.8MW models makes it an even more momentous moment because it further endorses the EOWDC as a world-class hub of offshore wind innovation.
“We are very excited by the cutting-edge technology deployed on all the turbines and it is remarkable that just one rotation of the blades can power the average UK home for a day.”
MHI Vestas Chief Operations Officer, Flemming Ougaard, said, “We are very pleased to have installed the first of 11 turbines at Aberdeen Bay. Our collaboration with Vattenfall not only provides clean wind energy for the UK, but also is an important opportunity for us to gain valuable experience with several different technologies. We look forward to the successful installation of the remaining turbines.”
The turbines are being transported from Esbjerg to Aberdeen by Swire Blue Ocean’s vessel, the Pacific Orca, where they will be lifted into position on the installed foundations. The Pacific Orca is believed to be the world’s largest wind farm installation vessel.
Jean Morrison, Chair of Aberdeen Renewable Energy Group (AREG), said: “The EOWDC is leading the way in terms of innovation for the offshore wind sector and will help enable the next generation of offshore wind.
It’s a real coup for the region to have the world’s most powerful turbines on its doorstep and cements Aberdeen’s position as a major global energy city. It also will lead us to a greener future.”
With the production of cow-dung fuel (Komaya) occupying much of the adjacent ground, YDM-4 6528 commences its return journey to Pilibhit Junction. The 13:35 from Shahjahanpur Junction (SZP), the 52234 all stations passenger service would take 2 hours 40 minutes to cover the 84 kms, making 14 intermediate stops en route. As for the 'renewable energy' dung patties (Khande) they would take about 4-5 days to dry in the sun prior to being moved and stacked for eventual use.
