See attached link below and/or click on the image to the left for 'B9 Energy' Wind Farms featured on Omagh District Council Webpage.

B9 Energy originally build Bessy Bell Co. Tyrone (now looking at phase 3 development) and has been responsible for several other Windfarms in the Omagh area. This company is planning to build yet another Windfarm on Slievard and Rylagh, in a designated area of outstanding natural beauty.

How this promotes culture, leisure and tourism is beyond me...

P.S. take note of the misleading information provided...

e.g. "Stimulate UK manufacturing industry to take a lead in the growing world-wide markets for renewable energy." 

Turbines are manufactured in Germany and imported here.

e.g. "Wind turbines are a temporary change to the landscape. A well-sited wind farm will not cause any disturbance." 

There is nothing temporary about it...tonnes of steel, concrete, miles of  heavy duty roads and irreversible damage to blanket bogs, flora/fauna, bats, birds, etc, etc. 

Also fails to specify what 'well sited' means...many of these same wind farms have been associated with sleep disturbance.

Tens of thousands of abandoned wind turbines now litter American landscape
The whole wind energy mess just illustrates how the American people have been played by their elected officials who bought into the "global warming" hysteria that spawned the push for wind energy in the first place. And now that the renewable energy tax subsidies are gradually coming to an end in some places, the true financial and economic viability, or lack of wind energy, is on display for the world to see.

In the UK, the energy industry admitted as long ago as 2008 that wind turbines are idle up to 30% of the time because of the unreliability of the wind. A report from the British Renewable Energy Foundation at the time describes the economically disastrous wind turbine industry.

UK and Irish ministers will today sign an agreement that could see some of the world's largest wind turbines built across the Irish midlands.

Stretching more than 600 feet (180 metres) in the air, the towers are set to generate energy for millions of UK homes from 2017.

The companies involved say the Irish power is a cheaper form of renewable than UK offshore wind.

But environmentalists have described the scheme as "crazy".

They say it risks damaging Ireland's landscape.

Under the plan, a number of companies are seeking to erect hundreds of wind turbines across the boggy midlands of Ireland. The power generated would be transferred to the UK via undersea cables that would join the grid at two points in Wales.
