While policy and manufacturing can at times dominate the headlines, we also understand the importance of siting and environmental compliance. A firm grasp of all the aspects involved with siting and compliance is a critical component for both individual wind projects and having the robust industry we all advocate for so strongly. American Wind Energy Association's (AWEA) Wind Project Siting and Environmental Compliance conference is the place where industry leaders, experts and external stakeholders gather to learn from each other and discuss the most challenging issues of the day. As the wind industry continues to expand, so does the need to better understand how wind projects interact with surrounding communities and natural environments. It is also important to use our understanding of those interactions to develop more effective siting and permitting policies. Siting wind energy projects is a crucial part of wind power development and operations. Efficient siting and permitting, and minimization of impacts - both real and perceived - will play a large role in helping the U.S. wind energy industry continue dramatic growth into the 2020s.
