The present research focuses on the effectiveness of the existing legal framework relating to forest and biodiversity conservation in India and the challenges involved in it.
Use should be made of the sustainable potential of bioenergy which can be tapped all over the world, provided that risks to sustainability are excluded. In particular, the use of bioenergy must not endanger food security or the goals of nature conservation and climate change mitigation.
This is an excerpt of the full report, which provides an overview of the key problems and perspectives and use of biofuels. It is based on an extensive literature study, taking into account recent major reviews. The focus is on so-called first generation biofuels while considering further lines of developments.
This compendium, developed by Ipieca and the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), aims to encourage the exploration of co-use opportunities in solar and wind energy projects, focusing on onshore projects. The main co-use strategies typically fall into several key categories, depending on the secondary land use integrated with renewable energy projects. Co-use could include co-locating two or more types of renewable energy generation on one site.
La presente nota técnica se centra en la planificación espacial para el desarrollo eólico y solar con respecto a la biodiversidad. Está destinada principalmente a los planificadores gubernamentales responsables del despliegue sostenible a largo plazo y/o la expansión de las energías renovables e infraestructuras asociadas (por ejemplo, infraestructura de red e instalaciones como puertos) a nivel regional, nacional y subnacional.
Cette note technique se concentre sur l'aménagement du territoire dans les projets de développement éoliens et solaires en ce qui concerne la biodiversité. Elle s'adresse principalement aux planificateurs gouvernementaux responsables du déploiement et/ou de l'expansion durable à long terme des énergies renouvelables et infrastructures associées (par exemple, infrastructures de réseau et installations telles que les ports) à l'échelle régionale, nationale et infranationale.
This technical note focuses on spatial planning for wind and solar development with respect to biodiversity. It is intended primarily for government planners responsible for the longterm sustainable roll out and/or expansion of renewable energy and associated infrastructure (e.g. grid infrastructure and facilities such as ports) at regional, national, and sub-national levels.
The Synthesis report provides a high-level overview of the main themes addressed in the Guidelines on mitigating biodiversity impacts associated with solar and wind energy development, published in 2021. The Guidelines aim to provide practical support for solar and wind energy devel-opments to effectively manage risks and improve biodiversity and ecosystem service outcomes.
