SUMMARY - In many countries, wind turbines are constructed as part of a strategy to reduce fossil fuel dependence. In … this paper, we measure the external effect of wind turbines on the transaction prices of nearby properties. Using a unique … transaction price dataset covering the period 1985-2011 and the exact location of all wind turbines built in the Netherlands, we …

A new concept in wind power harnessing is described which significantly outperforms traditional wind turbines of the …, at reduced cost. Its first innovative feature is the elimination of tower-mounted turbines. These large, mechanically … complex turbines, and the enormous towers used to hoist them into the sky, are the hallmark of today's wind power industry …

In this article we quantify the marginal external effects of nearby land based wind turbines on property prices … noise and visual pollution from wind turbines. This was achieved by using a dataset covering 21 municipalities and … noise and visual pollution from wind turbines are identified using Geographical Information Systems. Our results show that …
