Scots company’s radar invisible turbines to expand wind industry

Special polymer means wind farms could be built near flight paths.

AN EAST

Kilbride chemicals company is seeking to overcome one of the greatest restrictions on wind farm development, through a polymer coating for wind turbines that makes them undetectable to radar.

The technology would allow renewables developers to build beside airports and flight paths for the first time.

The firm, NiTech, operates as part of a pan-European consortium that has received £900,000 in EC funding for the project.
