Video montages showing the potential visual impact of the Grands Communaux wind farm project on the commune of Gissey-sur-Ouche.
In all the photos and videos, the turbines shown have a hub height of 115 m and a rotor diameter of 130 m, giving a tip height of 180 m. By comparison, the turbines at Bessey-en-Chaume are 130 m to the blade tip. The turbines are shown to scale, but in reality they will be far more visible than digital projections can show.
The turbines are numbered T1–T13. T1–T8 are in the Saint-Jean-de-Bœuf sector; T9–T13 are in the Antheuil sector. For more information, see the project overview and the project map (right). All locations are given as WGS84 coordinates (latitude/longitude) for use in Google Maps.
The video
A video simulation using the IGN’s high-resolution digital surface model, which shows the real height of vegetation and structures above the ground, suggests that the blade tips of T9, T10 and T11 will be visible from several houses in the rue de Véluze (T9 at 7.85 km). If the project were “repowered” with larger turbines, this visibility would increase.
The videos show a 47° field of view, which matches the human field of vision. Videos may take a moment to load. They can be enlarged to full screen.
