New in 2017! This fact sheet provides an overview of current knowledge on greater sage-grouse ecology, status, conservation challenges, and current conservation efforts, and presents a summary of recent research findings on the interactions between sage-grouse and wind energy development.

The meeting was packed with research offering progress and solutions that balance both wind energy development and wildlife conservation.

Updated for 2017! AWWI's “Wind Turbine Interactions with Wildlife and their Habitats” summarizes publicly available information about the adverse impacts of land-based wind power on wildlife in North America and the status of our knowledge regarding how to avoid or minimize these impacts.

What are the current trends in wind/wildlife research? How far has the science come since NWCC convened its first research meeting in 1994? Wind Wildlife Research Meetings tell the story.

The most recent NWCC webinar featured a summary of the latest knowledge on wind-wildlife interactions. Watch the recording and access the presentations and publications under previous webinars.
