As used in this Section, the following terms shall
have the meanings indicated:
FAA - The Federal Aviation Administration.
Ground-Mounted Solar Energy System – A freestanding solar energy conversion system. A ground-mounted solar energy system consists of solar panels used for production of electricity or water heating, structural support components, and associated control electronics.
Hub Height - When referring to a wind turbine, the distance measured from ground level to the center of the turbine hub.
IBC - International Building Code.
IFC - International Fire Code.
MET Tower - A meteorological tower used for the measurement of wind speed.
Roof-Mounted Solar Energy System - A solar energy conversion system mounted to the roof of a principal or accessory structure. A roof-mounted solar energy system consists of solar panels used for production of electricity or water heating and associated control electronics.
Roof-Mounted Wind Energy System - A wind energy conversion system mounted to the roof of a principal or accessory structure. A roof-mounted wind energy system consists of a wind turbine and associated control or conversion electronics.
Shadow Flicker - The on-and-off flickering effect of a shadow caused when the sun passes behind the rotor of a wind turbine.
Small Wind Energy Facility - A wind energy conversion system consisting of a wind turbine, a tower, and associated control or conversion electronics, that is intended to primarily reduce onsite consumption of utility power. Small wind energy systems are typically designed for on-site home, farm, and small commercial use.
Total Height - When referring to a wind turbine, the distance measured from ground level to the blade extended at its highest point.
Wind Energy Facility - An electricity generating facility consisting of one or more wind turbines under common ownership or operating control, and includes substations, MET towers, cables/wires, and
other buildings accessory to such facility, whose main purpose is to supply electricity to off-site customer(s).
Wind Turbine - A wind energy conversion system which converts wind energy into electricity through the use of a wind turbine generator, and includes the turbine, blade, tower, base, and pad transformer, if any; provided that such a system shall only be a wind turbine for purposes of this Section if it both has a total height greater than 100 feet and nameplate capacity of greater than 100 kilowatts (Note: wind turbines less than 100 feet in height and less than 100 kilowatts will be regulated pursuant to the small wind energy facility and roof-mounted wind energy system provisions in this Section).
