Cumulative Effects Analysis for Wind Energy Development: Current Practices, Challenges, and Opportunities

April 12, 2022

cumulative-effects-analysis-for
The increasing global deployment of wind energy has given rise to concerns about potential adverse effects on certain wildlife species and habitats. The United States and European nations use environmental impact assessments (EIAs) to evaluate the environmental effects of wind energy and inform wind energy planning, siting, and operational processes. A key component of the EIA is the cumulative effects analysis/assessment (CEA). CEAs consider the effects of a proposed development in the context of past, present, and future developments, as well as other (non-wind) activities.

the future is green delivering sustainable excellence to the auto-mobility industry

whitePaper | October 7, 2022

Green transport chain management means that process optimization reduces energy and material savings. More efficiently designed logistics processes with integrated IT systems make better use of storage capacities and avoid empty runs. The goal is to use less energy, produce fewer emissions during transportation and storage, have less packaging waste, and do as few but precisely coordinated work steps as possible.
