Even the best project of a wind power plant (WPP) can fail if there are not favourable legal regulations for its completion. Most of the research has dealt with identification of various obstacles to implement WPP (political, social, legal, environmental). Analyses of legal barriers (LBs) have been usually made at a high degree of generality. This paper offers a thorough overview of LBs for localization of WPPs in Poland. This is the country where restrictive regulations have blocked the possibility of implementing such projects in many areas. Unfriendly law may persuade investors to choose worse wind turbines foundation conditions. In our research we focus on a problem little dealt in scientific studies, i.e. on the localization of WPP in difficult geotechnical conditions. The article presents the analytical engineering method, which includes the mutual influence between foundation piles in carrying on the construction load on a subsoil. The paper presents the geotechnical parameters responsible for calculation outcomes, the theoretical basis of the curve analysis method of settlement of a single pile and of the calculation of piles settlement working in a group and fastened with a stiff head. It also shows the effect of pile arrangement in a foundation and a load distribution of in-dividual piles, as well as a settlement and leaning of foundation of wind power turbine towers. The method enables a more precise, safer and optimal design of a wind turbine foundation.

Nawet najlepiej przygotowany projekt elektrowni wiatrowej może zakończyć się niepowodzeniem, jeżeli zabraknie korzystnych przepisów prawnych dla jego realizacji. Problematyka rozwoju energetyki wiatrowej jest współcześnie niezwykle ważna. Decydujący udział w dynamice tego rozwoju mają rozwiązania systemowe, w tym również rozwiązania prawne. Od wielu lat toczy się dyskusja dotycząca strategii rozwoju polityki energetycznej uwzględniającej wykorzystanie odnawialnych źródeł energii. W tym kontekście prowadzone są również badania i analizy skoncentrowane na uwarunkowaniach rozwoju energetyki wiatrowej. Spora część z nich identyfikuje różne przeszkody we wdrażaniu i rozwoju energetyki wiatrowej (polityczne, społeczne, prawne, środowiskowe). Analizy barier prawnych są zazwyczaj dokonywane na wysokim poziomie ogólności. Niniejszy artykuł zawiera szczegółowy przegląd barier prawnych mających wpływ na lokalizację wież elektrowni wiatrowych w Polsce. Polska to kraj, w którym restrykcyjne przepisy zablokowały możliwość realizacji takich projektów lub skłaniają inwestorów do wyboru lokalizacji, na których występują niekorzystne warunki posadowienia. W naszych badaniach skupiamy si ę na problemie projektowych konsekwencji lokalizacji elektrowni wiatrowych w trudnych warunkach geotechnicznych. W artykule przedstawiono metodę obliczeniową proponowaną w analizie statycznej fundamentów palowych wież turbin wiatrowych, która uwzględnia wzajemny wpływ pali fundamentowych na przenoszenie obciążeń na podłoże gruntowe. W pracy przedstawiono parametry geotechniczne odpowiedzialne za wyniki obliczeń, teoretyczne podstawy metody analizy osiadania pala pojedynczego oraz obliczania osiadania pali pracujących w grupie i zwieńczonych sztywną głowicą żelbetową. Na podstawie przykładowych obliczeń przedstawiono wpływ rozmieszczenia pali w fundamencie na rozkład obciążenia poszczególnych pali, a także osiadanie i obrót fundamentu wież turbin wiatrowych. Przedstawiona metoda umożliwia dokładniejsze, bezpieczniejsze i bardziej optymalne projektowanie fundamentu lądowej turbiny wiatrowej w niekorzystnych warunkach ich lokalizacji.
