The Ministry of Defence objected to at least four planned windfarms in the past year, citing concerns that rotating blades could cause "unacceptable interference" with military radars used to detect aircraft, according to The Guardian.
MoD officials raised concerns in late June about a proposed onshore windfarm in County Durham. In a letter to Britain's planning authority, the defence ministry warned the project could prevent aircraft detection within an RAF Low Flying Area.
The objections put the MoD on a potential collision course with the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, which oversees renewable energy policy.
The source material does not provide details about the other three windfarm objections, specific dates for those cases, locations, or the outcomes of any of these disputes. It also does not include responses from either the energy department or the windfarm developers.
