Population genomics of Baltic Sea harbour porpoises

The Baltic Sea is experiencing an increase in pile driving for wind power exploitation that also affects areas used by harbour porpoises. In view of this and due to the current threat to a potential…

Preventative measures for underground cable projects

Laying high-voltage underground cables (for example HVDC – high-voltage direct current transmission) requires a range of prevention and mitigation measures. The research project develops practical…

PRIA-WIND

The PRIA-WIND project will design a procedure to independently verify the shutdown algorithms that are legally required for many wind turbines.

Priority areas for species protection in wind energy planning

Methodical approaches for the designation of priority areas for species protection in wind energy planning

ProBat

The software tool ProBat 7.0 calculates bat-friendly cut-in wind speeds for onshore wind turbines (WT). This operational management helps to minimise the killing risk for bats (collision or…

ProBat 8.0

The ProBat software for more bat-friendly operation of wind turbines is to be further developed. The transfer to an online database enables user group-specific data access. New features will be…

Windenergieanlagen vor einem bewölkten Abendhimmel

The aim of this project was to assess possible collision risks of migratory birds at offshore wind farms. Furthermore, models were developed to predict the risk of bird collisions. From these models,…

Progressive biofuels

The EU is targeting future funding at biofuels from raw materials, which are expected to have fewer negative effects on land use than conventional biofuels e.g. from rape, cereals or palm oil. The…

Quality assurance of bat expert opinions

Guaranteeing the quality of bat expert reports for wind turbine planning and approval is an important current requirement for an environmentally compatible energy transition. Species protection needs…

RADBIRD

The topic of this project is to record and predict bird migration over the Federal Republic of Germany. Based on (weather) data and forecast models, possible procedures are to be identified to switch…
