The Ministry of the Environment (ME) has on 18 November 2014 launched the phase of public hearing regarding the proposal for a new Government Decree on Reference Values for Wind Turbine Generator Noise. The hearing phase shall end on 15 December 2014, by which date comments must be submitted to the ME.
Since noise caused by wind turbine generators has, during the recent years, arisen as one of the key issues relating to wind power construction, certain reference values for the noise of wind turbine generators are proposed to be set in the new Government Decree. However, according to the proposal for the new Government Decree, certain plan proposals as well as permit applications pending at the time of entering into force of the new Decree would be excluded from the scope of application of the Decree.
