New page

= Introduction =

To model investment in new wind power plants, you must know where is possible to build them.

Onshore wind: must respect current land usage, nature reserves and minimum distances from properties.

Offshore wind: must respect nature reserves, sea depth, shipping lanes.

== Bottom-up approach ==

Example for wind turbines: look at each country's rules / minimum distance regulations and look in detail at where buildings are and compute where each and every possible wind turbine could go.

== Approximate approach ==

Use CORINE landcover and other databases of nature reserves to get a coarse-grained potential.
