Wind farm development programme is under threat as Ministry of Defence is concerned about its impact on radar and low flying aircraft. Construction of more than 100 wind turbines near Kielder, Northumberland has been blocked. The President of the British Wind Energy Association argued that this could mean an effective ban on offshore wind farms covering many parts of the country. This claim is denied by the MoD.
