Chroobach wind farm: Technical planning and EIA
The Chroobach area is characterized by good wind conditions and its location outside of protected areas. One particular challenge for the project, however, is that the four planned wind turbines are located in the forest - a first for a wind energy project in Switzerland. Due to the location in the forest area, high official requirements must be met. Our experienced wind energy team carried out extensive option studies on the turbine layout and site development to ensure that the clearing could be minimized and compensated for with contingency measures or compensating measures. The project was subjected to an environmental impact assessment. By clarifying issues such as landscape protection, noise protection, shadow impact and the aforementioned clearances, our interdisciplinary team of environmental specialists and wind energy experts was able to prove that the project is environmentally compatible.
