Wind Project in Sandl Cuts Turbines to 19 for Lynx Conservation

A windy power project in Sandl, Upper Austria, has seen a reduction in planned turbines from 22 to 19 due to the presence of lynxes in the area. Despite this, it remains the region's largest and most significant wind power initiative.

The project's reduction comes after lynxes were found in the area, leading to a change in plans. Originally, 22 wind turbines were proposed, but this number has been lowered to 19 to accommodate the lynx population.

The project, despite the reduction, continues to be the most substantial and crucial wind power endeavour in the region. It is set to make a significant impact on renewable energy production.

In related news, a hunter in the region targeted wolves instead of three lynxes, indicating the importance of lynx conservation in the area.

The Sandl wind power project in Upper Austria has adapted its plans to protect lynx populations, demonstrating a commitment to environmental conservation. Despite the reduction in turbines, the project remains a key contributor to the region's renewable energy goals.
