Description

20 years after the setting up of the first wind turbines in France, the wind energy sector is at a key turning point of its development. Behind it, the oldest wind farms reach the end of their useful lives and raise questions about dismantling and re-powering. In front of it: the first offshore wind farms are about to emerge from the water and the law on the energy transition shows the ambitious objective of doubling the number of onshore wind turbines by 2023, in a context which reinforce measures to protect the natural heritage in France - with the publication of the Law for the Recovery of Biodiversity in 2016 - and in Europe with the development of an action plan for better implementation of the Birds Directives and Habitats announced by the European Commission. With more than 400 participants and about 20 speakers from 4 countries, this 3. edition was a great success. During these two days, devoted respectively to the terrestrial and marine environments, the European Wind power and Biodiversity Seminar was an opportunity to establish the state of the development of wind power and the regulatory framework but also to take stock of the potential impacts of wind farms, the means to measure and mitigate them, in order to reconcile the development objectives of renewable energies with the imperatives of preserving biodiversity
