Not running smoothly as planned: Wind power locations in the forest are in question - the project should continue

For a long time it seemed as if the wind power locations in the Ebersberger Forest were already fixed. As for the five rotors in a straight line, there are now doubts.


For a long time it seemed as if the wind power locations in the Ebersberger Forest were already fixed.

As for the five rotors in a straight line, there are now doubts.

District

- The project will not be stopped despite all the criticism.

How many wind turbines could be in the Ebersberger Forst and where exactly, that seems open.

It is also clear that with current planning and the new, higher systems, the clearance areas according to the 10-H regulation cannot always be adhered to.

That means: distance to the wind turbine at least ten times the height.

It is questionable whether this Bavarian regulation will last.

She could be tipped out of Berlin.

The Ebersberg debate has picked up momentum again after the referendum.

District Administrator Robert Niedergesäß (CSU) made it clear to EZ: “Of course, the goal is and will remain to build five wind turbines in the forest.” In the end, you will see what is feasible.

It's about climate protection and alternative energy.

The current discussion was triggered by an expert opinion.

It was about the question of whether wind turbines can even be built in the Ebersberger Forest, a landscape protection area, as planned.

Keyword “zoning”.

Basically yes in one sub-area, so the answer in the report.

So far this has been controversial.

But: It actually looks like that, in two cases, 250-meter-high systems would not maintain a distance of 2500 meters to existing or planned residential areas, the district office quotes from the report.

According to the study, this would have to be checked on the basis of official planning data.

Possible changes: Smaller buildings or groups instead of lines

Further statement by the district office: There are now two current options: Either the two outer wind turbines would be shorter in order to maintain 10H, or the wind turbines would be regrouped from the line shape to a group shape. And in response to a DC request to the district administrator, the latter has a written message: “It should be noted that the line shape proposed so far is or was only a variant developed in the discussion. The final formation can only emerge as a result of further investigations and procedures. ”It is planned to keep the wind turbines together as a“ wind farm ”.

Giving up the project as a whole is not an option.

“Nobody talked about it either.” The district has committed itself to be independent of fossil and other finite energy sources by 2030.

“In order to achieve the 2030 target, wind power plants must also be built in the municipalities.

There are various approaches to this - a process that is currently active in and between the municipalities, according to the district administrator.

Against the construction of wind turbines in the Ebersberger Forest, even if the number were reduced, is still the "protection community".

"With a small step the door is open," said chairwoman Kerstin Mertens.

This applies to roads as well as to wind turbines.

And she asks how it is with the road safety on the paths in the forest when there are wind turbines.
