Biodiversity and responsible sourcing for wind and solar developments

The key aim of this report is to outline how developers can start to act on supply chain biodiversity impacts by improving traceability and sourcing practices through. It is primarily aimed at developers of wind and solar projects and transmission infrastructure, who primarily source composite goods (e.g. wind turbines and solar panels).

Opportunities for enhancing biodiversity at wind and solar energy developments

The need to transition to a lower carbon, naturesafe renewable energy-based economy is more urgent than ever. This report provides an  overview of potential opportunities for biodiversity enhancement for wind and solar developments, bringing together information on good  practice principles, case studies from industry practice, and a summary of existing approaches to biodiversity enhancement. It is intended as a  compendium summary resource for developers, combining a variety of diffuse information from literature and community of practice.

Spatial planning for wind and solar developments and associated infrastructure

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.

Guidance on biodiversity cumulative impact assessment for wind and solar developments and associated infrastructure

The key aim of this guidance is to reframe cumulative impact assessment (CIA) to help support biodiversity conservation and the achievement of global biodiversity goals (alongside climate and other societal development goals). This guidance is focused on biodiversity and wind and solar development, and is aimed primarily at government planners and project developers.

Μετριασμός Επιπτώσεων στη Βιοποικιλότητα κατά την Ανάπτυξη Ηλιακών και Αιολικών Πηγών Ενέργειας

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.

Μετριασμός Επιπτώσεων στη Βιοποικιλότητα κατά την Ανάπτυξη Ηλιακών και Αιολικών Πηγών Ενέργειας

Achieving a climate-resilient future requires rapid, sustained and far-reaching transformations in energy, land-use, infrastructure and industrial systems. Large-scale expansion of renewable energy can play a critical role in meeting the world’s growing energy demands and in the fight against climate change. However, even ‘clean’ energy sources can have significant unintended impacts on the environment.

O Relatório de síntese fornece uma visão geral de alto nível dos principais temas abordados nas Orientações sobre Mitigação dos impactos da biodiversidade associados ao desenvolvimento de energia solar e eólica, publicadas em 2021. As Orientações pretendem prestar apoio prático em empreendimentos de energia solar e eólica para ge-rir eficazmente os riscos e melhorar a biodiversidade e os resultados dos serviços dos ecossistemas.

减缓太阳能与风能开发对生物多样性的影响

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.

Mitigar los impactos de los proyectos de energía solar y eólica sobre la biodiversidad

Este informe de síntesis proporciona una visión general de alto nivel de los principales temas abor-dados en las Directrices sobre la mitigación de los impactos de los proyectos de energía solar y eólica sobre la biodiversidad, publicadas en 2021. Las Directrices tienen por objetivo prestar apoyo práctico a los avances en materia de energía solar y eólica para gestionar eficazmente los riesgos y mejorar los resultados en materia de biodiversidad y servicios ecosistémicos.

Atténuer les impacts des projets d’énergie solaire et éolienne sur la biodiversité

Ce rapport de synthèse fournit un aperçu de haut niveau des principaux thèmes abordés dans les Lignes directrices sur l’atténuation des impacts des projets d’énergie solaire et éolienne sur la biodiversi-té, publiées en 2021. Celles-ci visent à fournir un soutien pratique aux projets d’énergie solaire et éolienne, afin de gérer efficacement les risques et améliorer les résultats en matière de bio-diversité et de services écosystémiques.
