Samenvatting:
A structural failure of a wind turbine might lead to loss of blade (orparts of it) and thus cause a risk to nearby people and property. In
the Netherlands, more densely populated areas are considered to achieve
the target set by the Dutch government of implementing 1.500 MW wind
power onshore. Because of the public opinion locations close to highways,
railways, canals or existing industrial zones are preferred. This development
brings about that the risk of wind turbines for the environment becomes
more significant as more people might be present near a wind turbine
for a longer period. To deal with risks of wind turbine in a rational
manner, a handbook with procedures for the risk assessment of wind turbines
has been drawn up in order of NOVEM (the Netherlands Agency for Energy
and the Environment) [1]. This paper discusses the contents of the handbook
and the status of the handbook in the legal framework.
