Tulip turbines are “planted” in urban areas, on the rooftops of houses in Amsterdam, the Netherlands Traditional wind turbines are often located in the sea, are huge in size, make loud noises, can harm birds, and it is important that very strong winds are needed to generate electricity. The new tulip-shaped design overcomes all of the above shortcomings, it only needs a normal wind to generate enough electricity for a family to use comfortably all day. Israeli-American Dr Daniel Farb, the inventor of the tulip turbine, said the unique aerodynamic design makes the turbines quiet, efficient and capable of generating more than 50% of the electricity in clusters. Shaped like glossy flowers in a variety of colors and sizes (1m, 3m and 6m high), the tulip turbines are designed to double duty as electricity generation and artistic decoration on the rooftops. home, shopping mall, school… In addition, a solar system combined with tulip turbines could reduce overcrowding during the late afternoon peaks in many parts of the world when sunlight goes out and strong winds pick up.

Source: NYT After years of delays, the federal government approved the third offshore wind project in the US – and the biggest to date. The “Vineyard Wind” project consists of 84 giant turbines that will be built about 19 km from the Vineyard and Nantucket islands off the coast of Massachusetts. Vineyard Wind will have 800 Megawatts of generating capacity, outperforming Block Island Wind’s 30 MW and output from two test turbines installed in Virginia. According to the US Department of the Interior, this project, after going into operation in 2023, will generate enough energy to supply 400,000 homes and businesses. “Vineyard Wind” is a joint project between the energy company Avangrid Renewables and the Copenhagen Infrastructure Construction Company. It is expected that, when operating at full capacity, the Vineyard Wind farm has a total investment of 2 billion USD, can generate 800 MW of electricity / day. The Joe Biden government has a target by 2030 to generate 30 gigawatts of wind power. Interior Minister Deb Haaland evaluated the US licensing for this project as an important step to achieve the set goals of creating more jobs, combating climate change and strengthening the country. The US currently operates a number of small-scale wind farms off the coast of Virginia and Rhode islands.

In Krong Buk district (Dak Lak), there are 4 wind power projects issued by the People’s Committee of Dak Lak province, including: Cu Ne 1 wind power plant, Cu Ne 2 wind power plant, Krong wind power plant. Buk 1 and Krong Buk 2 wind power plant. All 4 projects were issued with the Decision on investment policy by the People’s Committee of Dak Lak province on February 26, 2021 and represented by Chinese nationals in accordance with the law … According to investment policy decisions, these 4 projects must complete legal procedures before construction. However, in mid-March, although the documents and procedures have not been completed, the project owner still proceeds to build. In Cu Ne commune, where the wind power projects of Cu Ne 1 and Cu Ne 2 are implemented, Mr. Luc Duy Phuong, Chairman of the People’s Committee of Cu Ne commune, said that despite the legal documents, the investor has carried out. Acquisition of people’s land and conducting land clearance to conduct construction in some locations. Meanwhile, the Ea Nam wind power plant project of Trung Nam Group as an investor in Ea H’leo district (Dak Lak) is also being massively constructed. Based on the provisions of the law, this is the project in which the State recovers land and then carries out the procedures for the enterprise to lease the land. However, up to now, although the land lease procedures have not been implemented, the site clearance work is also facing many difficulties and problems, but Trung Nam Group has carried out the construction. many items. Ea Nam wind power plant has a design capacity of about 400MW, total land use term is about 140ha, total investment is announced 16,500 billion. According to preliminary statistics, the investor has completed the construction of the operator and cleared the ground 58/84 positions of the turbine pillars, constructed the pile under the pillar foundation to be 30/84 pillars, the foundation for the turbine pillars was 20 / 84 pillars … The construction of the wind power project of Trung Nam has affected the daily life and production of local people. According to the People’s Committee of Ea Nam commune, there are about 500 complaints from the local people to the project reflecting on the project. “The project implementation of Trung Nam Company does not ensure the provisions of the law on land, construction and environment”, Mr. Nguyen Van Nhiem, Chairman of Ea Nam Commune People’s Committee affirmed. Similarly, the wind power projects invested in Dak Nong province are also massively implemented, although the legal documents and legal procedures have not been completed. In the photo, people walk on a dusty road in the wind power project area in Thuan Ha commune (Dak Song district, Dak Nong). According to statistics, up to now, there have been 6 wind power projects in Dak Song with a total investment of nearly 15,000 billion VND. This means that about 300 hectares of land, of which mainly agricultural land in Dak Song has to be converted to use for energy projects. Occupying the largest capacity and land area in Dak Song are the projects under the name of Mr. Do Le Quan, General Director of Tai Tam Co., Ltd., a well-known enterprise in the real estate sector in Hanoi with capacity designed 300 MW and about 200 ha of land. On October 1, 2020, the People’s Committee of Dak Nong Province issued a decision on investment policy for 3 projects led by Mr. Do Le Quan, including Dak N’Drung 1,2,3 Wind Power Plant Project. corresponding to investors of Dak N’Drung Energy One Member Limited Company 1,2,3 with a total investment of more than 10,000 billion VND in 4 communes of Thuan Ha, Thuan Hanh, Dak N’Drung and Nam N’Jang. According to the Chairman of the People’s Committee of Thuan Ha commune, the commune has not yet fully grasped the legal documents of the project. It is not known how much land will have to be acquired, at which locations, but the investor has deployed a series of works. The investor’s organization of the construction of wind power projects in Thuan Ha commune has been opposed by the people. One resident said, Thuan Ha commune (Dak Song) is a border area with fertile land, suitable for agricultural development. Previously, a number of strangers came to buy land from people on the pretext of building medicinal plant farms. However, up to this point, the positions that strangers buy have become the place for the construction of wind power projects. The people ask the authorities to publicize the project, require the investor to implement the project to ensure the environment, clarify the distance to build wind power poles with the people’s house and compensate satisfactorily. In the photo: Residents watch a video clip where they record the conflict between them and the security force at the wind power project. A concrete cylinder is inserted deep into the ground to build a tuapin pillar in village 8, Thuan Ha commune. According to villagers, the pillar is tens of meters long and the construction team uses heavy presses to push it to the ground. In Thuan Ha commune, the wind power works are spread over a large area. Local leaders also admitted, they themselves did not fully grasp the position of the tuapin pillars. Mr. Nguyen Van Pho, Chairman of Dak Song District People’s Committee, admitted that due to the pressure of the project schedule, the enterprise had to negotiate and buy and sell land with the people after which the State acquired and leased the land. The machine pressed concrete cylinders to the ground to build wind-power tuapin pillars has caused strong vibrations, cracked bricks, broken the walls of people’s houses. In order to solve problems for businesses, answer questions and frustrations of people, recently Vice Chairman of Dak Nong Provincial People’s Committee, Mr. Le Trong Yen presided over a dialogue between parties at the district People’s Committee office. Dak Song. However, the situation has yet to be improved. One day after the dialogue, the people of Thuan Ha continued to gather a large number of people to obstruct the construction investors. The heavy truck carrying materials into the project area was blocked while workers and other machinery at the site were forced to stop completely.
