Robert Whittlesey and John Dabiri at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena have found that creating a vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) will save you space as much as 100 times the area down to say their installation compared to traditional solutions.
This allows the production of energy will, inter alia, less threatening wandering birds. If we are talking about HAWT (horizontal axis wind turbines), then they need a
