The primary challenge in designing and constructing wind farms is the requirement for substantial land use. Habitat loss, vegetation changes, habitat fragmentation and disturbances to animals are a few of the biological and environmental repercussions of wind farms. To ensure the sustainable development of wind energy, it is crucial to conduct thorough environmental impact assessments, involve stakeholders in the planning process, and put suitable mitigation measures in place. The many implications of using wind farms are examined in this chapter, while taking into account environmental, ecological, social, and economic aspects.
