Description

PrePARED is a collaborative research project, funded by the Offshore Wind Evidence & Change programme and Crown Estate Scotland. It will concurrently study predator (seabird and marine mammal) and prey (fish) distribution and behaviour in and around offshore wind farms, providing critical insight into cumulative effects from large scale development for key species. Bringing together expertise from government, academia, nature conservation agencies and industry, PrePARED will address critical knowledge gaps that currently are barriers to sustainable offshore wind development, required to help meet the government’s renewable energy targets and subsequently reach net zero emissions.
