Morkūnė R, Marčiukaitis M, Jurkin V, Gecevičius G, Morkūnas J, Raudonikis L, et al. (2020) Wind energy development and wildlife conservation in Lithuania: A mapping tool for conflict assessment. PLoS ONE 15(1): e0227735. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0227735
The paper presents a mapping tool aiming to identify and minimise potential conflicts between onshore wind energy development and wildlife conservation in Lithuania. It merges current information on the distribution, conservation status and sensitivity of birds and bats to wind power with an integrated evaluation of wind resources (modelled wind speed), special planning status and technical perspectives of wind energy development.
- Breeding Black and White Storks, birds of prey and colonies of terns and gulls were considered to have the highest scores of sensitivity to the different effects of wind power among breeding bird species.
- Storks, Great White Egret, White-tailed Eagle, Lesser Spotted Eagle, Common Buzzard and Common Crane had the highest scores during the migration period.
- Wildlife in the western part of the country in the Curonian Lagoon region, as well as the municipalities of Varėna, Biržai and Anykščiai were characterized as highly sensitive to wind power.
- Considering the installed wind power (by MW), 27% of installed wind power in 2017 was located in the high conflict zones, 26% in the medium conflict zones, while 47% of installed energy was located in low conflict zones.
