Wind energy company calls for inquiry into wind energy and health
Pacific Hydro supports calls for wind farm health probe http://www.abc.net.au/news/2012-06-14/pacific-hydro-supports-calls-for-wind-farm-health/4070878 June 14, 2012 A wind energy company, Pacific Hydro, has backed calls for a study into the health effects of wind farms and power generation. The company’s general manager, Lane Crockett, backed the suggestion during a meeting on wind farms in Portland on Tuesday.
A Senate inquiry last year recommended the Government should fund a health assessment. Mr Crockett says the Government should launch a broad-ranging inquiry into the claimed health problems caused by power generation.
“If you really want to have a broad conversation about what forms of power generation are appropriate to power Australia, then you should do a health review of all forms of power generation,” he said.
