Bat Deterrent Systems
As White-Nose Syndrome continues to ravage the populations of many hibernating bat species, the wind industry remains committed to lessening its impact on wildlife, including contributing to bat fatalities. While it is well researched that wind turbines cause mortality to bats, successful minimization methods have been implemented. Presently, the most effective techniques involve curtailment, which requires a reduction in energy generation. NRG Systems understands that this is not an ideal option for wind plant operators, so we have set out to develop Bat Deterrent Systems that could significantly reduce bat take without curtailment, meaning operators can produce more renewable energy more of the time while keeping all bats out of harm’s way.
