Description
To help bend the curve on climate change loss, we believe offshore renewable energy should be developed in line with principles of environmental and nature protection - we want offshore renewable energy with nature in mind!
WWF Baltic Programme (WWF BEP) and Coalition Clean Baltic (CCB) have developed guidelines in a joint effort to steer the discussion in Baltic Member States and provide criteria for the identification and designation of offshore renewable energy (ORE) and for the deployment and installation of ORE technology. With these guidelines we hope to inform the discussion on, and planning of, the much-needed expansion of offshore renewable energy.
This event, organised by the WWF Baltic Programme and Coalition Clean Baltic, focused on how to integrate nature into offshore wind development infrastructure by bringing together the perspectives of wind energy developers, research and NGOs. We zoomed into the developed guidelines and the relevance of integrating sustainability and biodiversity measures as part of the selection criteria during the process of the identification and designation of offshore renewable energy areas for the deployment and installation of offshore renewable energy technology.
Panel
- Kai Truempler, Head of the Spatial Planning division of the German Federal Maritime and Hydrographic Agency.
- Lena Bergström, Head of the Ecosystem Analysis Unit and Associate Professor at Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences Aqua.
-Lasma Livzeniece, Executive Director at Latvian Wind Energy Association.
Moderated by:
Johanna Fox, Director of the WWF Baltic Sea Programme
ORE Guidelines presentation:
Andrea Cervantes, CCB Biodiversity Officer
