Duke Energy Uses IdentiFlight System to Detect Birds and Prevent Collisions with Wind Turbines
IdentiFlight is a network of camera units that watch for bald and golden eagles. When a camera detects an approaching object, the system, using machine learning and artificial intelligence, determines if it’s an eagle within seconds. IdentiFlight will track the eagle and stop nearby turbines from spinning if the bird gets too close.

Bird Fatalities in Wind Farms Greatly Reduced by Using IdentiFlight AI Technology
IdentiFlight® is excited to announce that an independent study, “Automated curtailment of wind turbines reduces eagle fatalities,” was recently published in the Journal of Applied Ecology. Conducted by The Peregrine Fund, in cooperation with Western EcoSystems Technology, Inc. and the US Geological Survey, at a wind farm site in Wyoming, the research showed use of the IdentiFlight system resulted in an 82 percent reduction of eagle fatalities.
