Abstract | Wind power onshore is one of the key technologies in the process of transitioning to a climate-neutral energy system. Yet, negative externalities of wind power for people and nature can occur. These externalities are usually regulated with spatial planning instruments that exclude certain areas from wind power development. This regulatory practice can cause trade-offs between the regulated externalities. We identify and quantify these trade-offs for forest bans and setback distances to settlements. We use a multi-criteria GIS-based model of the potential areas for wind power onshore in Germany. Our results show that relevant trade-offs exist between a forest ban and the proximity of the remaining potential areas to settlements as well as between setback distances and the share of forest in the remaining potential area. Further, we find that individual and simultaneous implementations of the described regulations reduce the potential area of and production potential from wind power substantially. |
