Projects expected to come before the Commission in the future will present some challenges to the proposed locations, potential impacts and recent developments in turbine technology. Turbines sizes are growing. With current use of turbines ranging from 1.5 megawatts to newer designs of about 2.5 megawatts are already proposed to stay in operation.
Proposals in the early stages of development include turbines rated from 3 to 3.6 megawatts ranging in height up to approximately 500 feet more.
Another group of projects being proposed by developers to catch the strong winds along Lake Ontario shoreline in western Jefferson County have raised significant concerns regarding migratory and endangered wildlife species.
