Transitioning away from fossil fuels to renewable energy is fundamental to solving the biodiversity crisis, as climate change is a main driver of biodiversity loss. The space required for the renewable energy transition is significant, and, with a nature in crisis, it is vital that we make sure our energy projects benefit nature. In 2024, we continued taking action to deliver on our ambition to achieve a net-positive biodiversity impact from all new renewable energy projects from 2030.

The table lists sites with temporary material impacts, including overlaps with protected areas and key biodiversity areas (KBAs). For example, the Gode Wind 3 site in Germany overlaps with 1 KBA and 7 protected areas, covering an area of 1,800 hectares.
