Silence

I have to say that standing this close to one of the turbines is very unbalancing, however the reported noise can best be described as a whisper. I have been close to other turbines which make a lot more noise than these. Perhaps the designers have listened to some of the residents concerns and splashed out on some more expensive turbines.
