We have recently published updated Scottish Marine Energy Research (ScotMER) evidence maps: https://t.co/jdrpsIumAi.

These detail the gaps in the evidence on the impacts of offshore renewables on the marine environment🌊.

The #PrePAREDProject investigates environmental impacts of offshore wind farm development and operation on predator (marine mammals and seabirds) and prey (fish) interactions.

‘In Scottish Government we’re pioneering a nature-based approach to the transition which sees increasing biodiversity and reducing carbon emissions as equally important. We advise projects to really focus on making strong applications that thoroughly account for all stakeholders.’

At #SROFFSHORE24 Session 7A: The Changing Requirements of Consenting we heard from @scotgov’s Offshore Wind Consenting and Marine Planning Support, Mark Palmer, about the consenting environment in Holyrood. This was followed by a panel discussion from @BurgesSalmon, West of Orkney Windfarm, @EDF_Renewables, @SPRenewables & @NatureScot who uncovered the dynamic risk register of consenting issues and the formidable barriers to deployment for offshore wind projects.

Session Sponsor: West of Orkney Windfarm.

A trailblazing marine environment fund – designed to help ensure Scotland’s coasts and seas are healthy, productive and nature-rich – is already having a great impact, after its first two years saw over £3.2m in funding distributed to 45 projects. https://t.co/ZiuPekmckk

As we celebrate #EarthDay, it is essential to recognize the need for responsible wind energy development that balances clean energy production with the protection of our valuable ecosystems and wildlife populations. https://t.co/Sxc0omw3oM
