环境

从建造到运营, 十大靠谱网赌致力于评估环境风险, 仔细权衡不同的关注点, 实施缓解活动. When constructing new power plants we use international good practice and guidance, and when in operation we follow environmental concessions and licenses. 

能源生产影响环境

所有的能源生产都会对环境产生影响. We therefore have a strong focus on research and planning to predict, 理解, and minimise the impacts on the environment from our activities.

Large-scale hydropower developments, for example, can lead to significant changes in natural areas. 淡水物种，如野生鲑鱼, trout and freshwater mussel are vulnerable to migration barriers and changes in water temperature, 流量和体积. We work systematically to minimise or mitigate such impacts through for instance improving fish habitat and spawning areas and support the migration of fish.

风力发电场对飞行动物有影响, 尤其是鸟类和蝙蝠, 以及陆生动物的迁徙模式. We do comprehensive environmental impact assessments and implement identified measures, such as establishment of no-work zones during construction and operation. Impacted biodiversity areas and sensitive areas are identified early in the planning phase, 十大靠谱网赌还收集被列入红色名录的鸟类的信息.

Solar farms can help to promote wildlife, biodiversity and agricultural sustainability. By restoring hedgerows and planting new trees and native plants, 为各种物种恢复或创造栖息地, 从昆虫到鸟类和哺乳动物.

All our technologies have impact on the landscape by construction of infrastructure. We work to reduce or mitigate these impacts by revegetation projects, 保护土壤, 空气和水的污染和废物管理.

土地利用的变化影响生物多样性. As the number of land-intensive renewable energy projects increases, we must continuously work to implement and address the challenges as part of our daily operations and seek to minimise potentially negative impact.
