Wind energy

At our April meeting, we had a presentation from Peter Hinson about wind energy. This is significant as he is a consultant involved with the proposed wind farm near Biggleswade. Peter gave us some background into his involvement in the industry and how much it has changed over the last 20 years. He gave us an overview of the difficulties involved in trying to get a planning application passed for this type and size of project.
