Norway: Wind park allegedly threatens herding livelihoods of indigenous Saami community

"'Green' colonialism is ruining Indigenous lives in Norway", 1 August 2020

In April this year, wind energy company Eolus Vind broke ground for the Oyfjellet wind plant, a new wind power project in Saepmie, the ancestral lands of the Indigenous Saami people, which stretch across Norway, Sweden, Finland and Russia. This led to a conflict between the Norwegian authorities, project developers and the Saami reindeer herding community Jillen Njaarke, which reveals the numerous reckless practices behind Europe's "green" energy transition.

The German owners of the Oyfjellet wind project, Aquila Capital, have already made a lucrative deal to supply the power produced by the wind plant to the nearby aluminium smelter by Alcoa...

[T]he project is disrupting the sustainable way of living of the Saami community, which protects their land...
