In the last ten years wind energy has greatly developed in Europe in the absence of a clear understanding on its possible impact on biological diversity. The present report analyses the effects of wind farms on birds and suggests some guidance for site selection that would minimise their impact.
Collision of birds with the cables of powerlines and electrocution of birds sitting on power poles are important factors increasing mortality of some threatened species. The present...
