Wind turbines:Wind turbine blades make noise as they turn in the wind which can cause disturbances to people. Most land-based wind power projects require service roads that add to the physical effects on the environment.
Producing the metals and other materials used to make wind turbine components has environmental implications and fossil fuels may be used to produce the materials.
Turbine blades as currently constructed are mostly not recyclable.
Solar: Fabrication requires corrosive metals like Hydrofluoric Acid, Sodium Hydroxide. Blast furnace burns fossil fuels at high temperatures - releases greenhouse gases. Only be transported in designated routes at particular times by trained personnel - expensive restrictions.
If panels are disposed of inappropriately, toxic chemicals and hazardous wastes might be released into the atmosphere.
Panels made of several resources & rare minerals - must be recycled properly.
Research shows that by 2035, discarded panels would outweigh new units sold by 2.56 times.
