RGI-Greece event ‘Bird protection around the grid – for nature protection and system security’

The goal of the webinar was to explore the intricate balance between grid infrastructure and bird protection and share experiences from several EU Member States regarding mitigation measures, planning, and policy.

In the half-day event, speakers from Greece, Germany, Belgium and Bulgaria exchanged their experiences on, for example, the technical requirements of bird flight diverters, sensitivity mapping and national guidelines. In the discussions, participants agreed that taking steps to ensure bird protection along the grid is indispensable, not only as it affects biodiversity protection goals, but also network reliability and public perception of grid infrastructure. You can find all information on the speakers in the below agenda.

RGI is glad to collaborate with colleagues in Greece and supports their commitment towards a nature-friendly electricity grid.
