Oct 24, 2025 - New wind turbine shutdown technology helps keep birds safe
According to Birdlife South Africa, nearly 6,000 birds die annually due to the impact of wind turbines located along migratory paths. Scientists have developed a Shutdown on Demand protocol, which uses data on birds` migratory patterns to automatically turn off turbines during critical times. This initiative, currently being tested, has shown promise in reducing bird fatalities, with founders confident that it`s making a real difference in conservation efforts.
