No, absolutely not, but it can be if locations are selected appropriately. In many countries it is up the farmer or landowner anyways. So what they decide to farm, is being farmed. Which opens a whole different discussion (is farming food to feed to cows really the best option?...) and so on

True. In many locations the newly arrived extreme heat is making agriculture unviable. In such locations, it is a win win. Solar panels provide shade & allows agriculture to continue (shade keeps soil moist that would have dried out). Such locations are all across Italy, Spain & Greece

It is not surprising that, when you harvest two things from the same land, one output might decrease. When you grow strawberries in an apple orchard it might not be ideal for the strawberries.

Hikes that take you to a windfarm are good hikes #windpowerlove

Repowering also means that communities continue to benefit from nearby windfarms as operators often offer low electricity prices to them. Besides other goodies like a livable planet for their grandkids 🌱🌍

The same power plant built in 2005 produced 6MW with 3 Vestas V80 & V90

🧵Let's talk repowering! Wind energy has been around for a long time & many turbines are nearing the end of their lifespan. Re-powering means replacing old turbines with new ones thus quadrupeling the energy harvest from an area. 2 modern Vestas V150 turbines 11,2MW = electricity for 6.900 househols

Übrigens: warum die NÖN guten Journalismus aus dem Fenster werfen und diese völlig falsche Visualisierung verwenden, kann ich mir nur mit Freude an Fehlinformation erklären
