ProBIRD
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…
