On shore wind is a mature technology and should stand or fall without the subsidy. As for being environmentally friendly, what about the people of Bautau where the Neodymium for the generators is mined? As for efficiency, let's stop the use of 'installed capacity' when talking about efficiency and economic benefit, its downright fraud! Let's use 'average annual predicted output' - about a fifth of installed capacity.

This is the thin edge of the wedge and we should all resist because Northumberland is a unique and special place and should be enjoyed by future generations.

In addition they are unsightly and draw the eye in any landscape, thereby destroying the natural beauty. The only reason there are so many applications for windfarms is the iniquitous subsidy handed out to people who have no genuine concern for the environment, only there own pockets.

In any event They are not going to resolve our green energy, and are only being constructed due to large government subsidies

What is the point of ploughing millions into the Northumberland Tourism industry to blight it with foreign-owned windfarms that cannot justify their cost. I am disgusted by Northumberland County Council and the lack of democracy given to the people it allegedly serves

The CO2 levels of today are caused by the global temperatures that existed between 12 AD - 1212 AD.
Therefore there is no scientific reason to reduce CO2 emission, except as a method of criminal theft, by our own Government, as ordered by the UN.
At least Cameron's father-in-law is benefitting from the scam, by hundreds of thousands of pounds.

For the very small percentage of gasses the UK produces we (the UK are going to criple ourselves and push more people into fuel poverty as well as reducing our manufacturing.

]]> Thu, 9 Feb 2012 03:10:57 UTC 12174858 Mr Peter Lovering [Signature #282] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/12174697?utm_medium=rss As an engineer I deplore wind turbines built in the wrong location as they are inefficient and not as green as made out,as well as despoling the beauty of Northumberland. Compare this to the site in China where Neodinium, used in the generators of wind turbines, is processed, and where the land and people have been poisoned. As an analogy to wind turbines, would you buy a car that operates at only 25% of its performance and costs twice as much to buy? That's the effect of the subsidy we pay.

The Sun produces enough electricity to power the world on a daily basis, with minimum cost to the environment. Wind vs Solar, the plants have survived for years and they will continue to survive.

Follow nature's natural path for all our plant's energy needs.

That windfarms are not the panacea originally thought, is now becoming a mainstream, not a minority opinion. The cost to communities is far too high. Good luck with your impressive campaign of opposition to this major industrial threat.

If we are to promote visitors to our region .What will they hope to see , huge metal decaying structures or green sweeping tranquil landscapes-i know which I would choose. Has any real consideration been given too what happens when these monsters are near or at the end of there life in 15-20 years time will they be abandoned by "bankrupt" companies who have run off with the profits or replaced with larger?

In short, wond farms are a blot on the landscape.

The green dream is over. Communities all over the United Kingdom are standing up to these arrogant, greedy companies with only profit on mind. This proposal speaks for itself. Too close to homes and far to close to the National Park. Enough is enough.

Radical thought needs to be put in for the sighting of a wind farm. Wingates is not well thought of and a huge burden on local people and the beauty of the tranquil area.

This is a waste of public money. Due to this I see no reason why proposals like this in such a tranquil area be passed. Investment in nuclear energy is the only way forward.

No one wants them there. Greed at its best.

Furthermore, sight of the turbines from as far away as the Heritage Coastline and the Cheviots will be an eyesore within the whole environment, thus damaging businesses and people's livelihoods and the Northumberland National Park, an area of outstanding natural beauty.

The long term damage to the environment, local economy, communities and people's lives far exceeds any short term benefits propounded by the company.

The wildlife corridor and environmental work which is attracting owls and many other species will be harmed. The area is en route for swans and geese to lakes and rivers of coquetdale. Wingates is a small hamlet which will be overshadowed by turbines and all the infrastructure needed by roads and pylons.
We must not let a beautiful landscape be spoiled. Once this happens the tranquil unique character of the village will be lost.

Wind farms are a sham and a sopp to carbon credits which are now being traded in the city much in the same way as sub prime mortgages were and making obscene money for a few wide boys and selfish city types.

We do not need the intusion of wind farms that create noise and pollute the amosphere and are uneconomic and are only being built at the huge government subsidies. Let the compmanies trhat want to create them put their efforts into better reasearchfor the storage.

Why not insist on all new build that they have solar panels.

Other reliable energy sources should be sort after. Windfarms are expensive, uneconomical and unreliable.
