IdentiFlight to Protect Avian Wildlife from Turbine Collisions at Masdar Wind Farm in Uzbekistan
IdentiFlight is pleased to announce that the IdentiFlight avian detection technology will be utilized throughout a wind farm development in Zarafshan, Uzbekistan. The 500-megawatt wind project will be Uzbekistan's first utility-scale wind farm and the largest renewables project in Central Asia. IdentiFlight will provide 74 units for coverage for the entire wind farm, protecting 12 avian species, including species of endangered Old World vultures.
"IdentiFlight is thrilled to be a part of this landmark renewable energy project in Uzbekistan," said Don Mills, IdentiFlight President and Chief Operating Officer. "Masdar and the country of Uzbekistan are setting an example of responsibility and respect for the region's unique avian wildlife for all subsequent projects. Though these bird species are not legally protected, they acknowledge that they are highly valued in the region and their protection is paramount."
