Aveillant’s non-scanning, continuously-tracking 3D radar technology can detect the presence and position of aircraft in the vicinity of the largest wind turbines to “a level of accuracy that will assure safe separation of aircraft and turbine in the most demanding airspace”, claims the company.

Wind turbines in motion can mimic aircraft on an air traffic controllers' radar screens. Some 6.5GW of UK wind farm applications are currently subject to radar-related objections, according to industry body RenewableUK.
