Sažetak
One of the goals of the European Green Deal is to make Europe climate neutral. Achieving the climate objective of reducing greenhouse gas emissions requires an increase in the share of renewable energy sources. However, despite all the benefits of renewable energy in raising the quality of the environment on a global level, there are certain negative impacts it can have on the site-specific environment.The goal was to develop assessment methods of the impact of renewable energy facilities on biodiversity in the early stage of project planning. We analysed the suitability of a potential renewable project location for biodiversity using desktop research and GIS environment. Fundamental determinants of the biodiversity richness were habitats, protected areas and Natura 2000 sites. Further, birds, bats and large carnivores, the groups that are most affected by renewable energy facilities, have been analysed in more detail. Based on habitat and topographic suitability, zones of risk within the project area were assessed. Taking all aspects above into account, the likelihood for cumulative impacts was considered. The total site risk rating as the final step enabled decision making about the further project development. To conclude, the identification of risks in the phase of project site selection before the start of the project is highly recommended as it enables an assessment of project feasibility and the avoidance of significant negative impacts.
