Floating 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…
MoreForum on Fish Protection and Fish Bypasses
The Forum was dedicated to the topic of fish protection and fish bypasses from 2012 to 2022. It pursued a cross-interest approach from a technical point of view. The aim was to develop a common,…
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…
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…
MoreIntegration of solar energy into the Lower Saxony energy landscape (INSIDE)
The project will primarily demonstrate methods for determining potential.
MoreLand availability for onshore wind energy
The goal is to calculate the land availabilty for the expansion of onshore wind energy.
MoreLandscape and power grids
The conversion of our energy systems involves new requirements for power distribution. When planning the expansion of the grid it is necessary to record and evaluate the negative effects on the…
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…
MoreMitigation of offshore pile driving noise
Overview of site-specific and technical-constructive properties of sound generation and transmission of pile-driving sound as well as sound reduction measures
MoreMonitoring the operation of WT in woodland – impacts on the avifauna
In the course of the energy transition, forests – habitats for woodpeckers, owls and other species of birds – are increasingly becoming sites for wind farms. Noises, movement or obscuration can have…
