Controversial plans for wind turbines as tall as Nelson's Column in a Derbyshire village have been resubmitted. Bowler Energy LLP submitted a third set of plans to South Derbyshire District Council for two 45-metre high structures on land near to Burnaston Lane in Etwall. Work has also started today on a two-week project to build new wind turbines at a sewage works in Spondon. Severn Trent Water is building the turbines at its sewage treatment centre in Spondon. It is predicted they will produce about 10,000 mega watts of electricity - the equivalent to supplying about 3,000 homes with power. East Midlands Airport had previously claimed the project would pose a "serious safety hazard" to aircraft.
