Description

An innovative facility, developed by Prof. Nir Sapir and Ph.D. student Yuval Werber from the Department of Evolutionary and Environmental Biology in collaboration with researchers from Tel Aviv University, the Wingo Energy company, and the entrepreneur Gadi Harali, is designed to prevent the killing of bats by wind turbines – a problem that currently prevents the efficient and continuous operation of the turbines that produce energy.
