BioClim – European Conferences on Biodiversity and Climate Change
Are there natural techniques for ameliorating climate change and its effects? How does climate change impact on species' diversity? These questions are being addressed by two large scientific…
MoreBiogasNatur
Based on a study of specific areas in several sample regions, the technical and economic options for an environmentally compatible utilisation of biogas from a nature conservation angle were assessed…
MoreEKNA – Environmental impacts of underground cables and options for an environmentally-compatible transmission route design
Underground cables as an alternative to overhead transmission lines are increasingly under discussion. The project examines the effects of different extra-high voltage underground cable systems on…
MoreEnergy concepts and nature conservation
Although the extent of renewable energies has so far only covered a relatively minor proportion of the total energy requirement in Germany (approx. 14.6% of final energy consumption), in places…
MoreFaunaGuard – Modeling impacts offshore wind turbines
Study to evaluate the effectiveness of the Fauna Guard System in offshore projects in the German EEZ.
MoreFloating PV I – nature conservation impacts
PV systems on artificial and heavily modified water bodies also serve to implement the EEG (§ 36 WHG). The first systems have gone into operation on artificial stillwaters, although the nature…
MoreFloating PV II - Investigation nature conservation effects still waters
The research projects focuses on the ecological effects of floating photovoltaic systems (FPV systems) on artificial or heavily modified bodies of water. The aim is to assess the effects on species,…
MoreFuture solar farms: technologies, impacts, spatial planning options
Solar farms are playing an increasingly important role in the energy transition. In addition, new forms of photovoltaics are emerging - such as the combination of agriculture and photovoltaics…
MoreLandscape, protected areas and renewables
The research project investigates the management potential for site protection with particular emphasis on protected landscape areas. Particular attention was given to the scope for controlling the…
