Propelled by the desire to produce clean energy and reduce greenhouse gases, Germany aims to make the best of the wind energy. The increase in the use of wind power means that Germany will need to develop various scenarios that will incorporate different elements, such as technology, nature conservation, economics, etc. A research study “Szenarien für den Ausbau der erneuerbaren Energien aus Naturschutzsicht”, funded by the Federal Agency for Nature Conservation considers different possibilities of incorporating nature conservation when developing these scenarios. In fact, two out of the four scenarios presented for 2035 make nature conservation their highest priority. These scenarios show a higher degree of avoided conflict risk.
