Reconciling offshore wind and biodiversity targets: Are we on track to realise the European Green Deal?

The EU Green Deal’s targets for biodiversity and offshore renewable energy are ambitious, multilayered and ultimately, connected. While offshore renewable energy is an important pillar to achieving the clean energy transition and climate goals in the EU, the effects (both positive and negative) on the ecosystem, and the species inhabiting it, cannot be ignored. In the workshop, the CrossGov project will explore how policy targets can be balanced at different management levels and what options policy makers have to expand offshore wind, while supporting biodiversity.

Beyond CO2: Ensuring a sustainable hydrogen ramp-up

Green hydrogen is emerging as a key solution for decarbonizing hard-to-abate sectors and offers significant value-creation opportunities in renewable-rich countries. However, hydrogen production also comes with challenges. Potential environmental impacts are significant, particularly on land and water use. Undesirable developments pose a risk to the acceptance of hydrogen production and harbor the potential for conflict. If not properly managed, these challenges can lead to negative environmental impacts and risks for local communities and their livelihoods.
