Effectiveness of control measures for the red kite
The project aims to optimise the planning and approval process for wind turbines and to minimise the risk to bird species sensitive to wind turbines. A field studies-based evaluation will be made of…
MoreEffectiveness of mitigation measures
There is a wide range of current measures used to minimise the adverse effects of wind turbines on birds. These include regulating the operation of the turbine, preventing birds being attracted to it…
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…
MoreEnergy-efficiency refurbishment and species conservation
In order not to exacerbate the "housing shortage" for birds and bats during building refurbishment, environmental and species protection must be linked together and jointly promoted. This three-year…
MoreEUROKITE
LIFE EUROKITE uses telemetry to investigate the anthropogenic causes of red kite mortality.
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 quantity targets for wind energy expansion
The report shows a way not only to make the provision of land more legally secure and to strengthen the municipal planning level compared to the current control model, but also outlines a…
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…
