Bat mitigation framework for wind power development

Description

Wind energy projects must be appropriately sited and well planned to avoid or minimize bat mortalities. The sites chosen for wind power developments due to favourable local meteorological conditions also appear to coincide with bat migration corridors, with turbine heights and numbers playing a significant role in bat fatalities. High rates of bat mortalities are concerning as bats are relative long-lived with low reproductive output rates, and the majority of bats killed by turbines tend to be reproductive adults.
