A wind turbine, like almost any other tall structure, will cast a shadow when the sun is shining. The rotor blades may chop the sunlight, causing a flickering or blinking effect while the rotor is in motion. FPL Energy has a self-imposed requirement to locate turbines at least 650 feet from residential areas to virtually eliminate all shadowing to a residence.
