Renewables in nature conservation monitoring
The project fills the gap of a missing overall view of the effects of the expansion of renewable energies on nature and landscape since 1991. The research project will examine the impact of the…

Repowering of wind turbines
A significant increase in the repowering of wind turbines is expected in the near future, as the period of guaranteed feed-in renumeration for many existing wind turbines will expire. From a nature…

Small wind turbines and bats
While the danger to bats from large wind turbines has now been proved, there is still uncertainty about the effects of small wind turbines (SWT). Based on a before-and-after comparison, bat behaviour…

Species and site protection in planning
The main focus of the project is to standardise and optimise the processes for the legal review of species and site protection at higher planning levels. This concentrates in particular on the higher…

Species conservation and small wind turbines
This project records baseline data on a larger scale for the first time in order to evaluate the effects of small wind turbines on birds and bats. The study also analyses the relevant determining…

Underwater noise effects from offshore wind energy (UWE)
With the use of the North and Baltic Seas as sites for wind turbines, marine mammals are being exposed to increasing underwater noise. The planned methods and measuring procedures enable an…

WindGISKI
WindGISKI Land use conflicts jeopardise the success of the energy transition. In many regions of Germany, citizens are campaigning against the expansion of wind energy because they are concerned…

Workshop series "Bird Detection Systems"
Automatic bird detection systems have, in conjunction with the event-related operational curtailment of wind turbines, have the potential to reduce conflicts with the species protection law. The…
