The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide funding to Stantec Consulting Services Inc. (Stantec) to undertake a field study on improving the technique of curtailment of wind turbines for reducing and avoiding impacts to rare and vulnerable bat species. Testing would be carried out using a tower/nacelle mounted acoustic monitoring system that would be installed on pre-existing wind turbines.
