Energy 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…
MoreFavorable Conservation Status (FCS) Programmes for wind energy-sensitive birds
The project aims to present suitable FCS measures and provide concrete advice for implementation in practice. This is in line with the nationwide principle of nature-friendly expansion of renewable…
MoreFederal sectoral planning: nature and environmental conservation for the expansion of the transmission grid
Despite the initial publications by the Federal Network Agency and transmission grid operators, in practice there are still unresolved questions about the methodology of federal sectoral planning in…
MoreFloating PV – An investigation concept for the 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…
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…
MoreGround-mounted photovoltaic and reconnecting habitats
Open areas to the right and left of roads and transport routes are being increasingly used as sites for solar parks in Germany. This project aims to research the extent to which they can still…
MoreInnovation for overhead power lines
The energy transition requires expansion of the power grid, but there is a low acceptance of power masts. This project therefore aims to develop innovative systems for masts and cables in the 380 kV…
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…
MoreMultiCriteriaWind
For the study, a total of 6 animals were fitted with a modern GPS transmitter, which provides data on the altitude and location of the animals. At the same time, the land use and management on the…
MoreNational natural landscapes and renewable energies
The project examined the question of what could constitute an ecologically sustainable energy transition in nature parks and biosphere reserves. Nature parks and biosphere reserves, as components of…
