Environmental impact assessment follow-up in offshore wind energy development
Offshore wind energy (OWE) has gained international prominence as an alternative for the energy transition. Due to their potentially significant impacts, OWE projects are often subject to Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA). Within the EIA process, follow-up is a crucial step in informing project’s management and enabling learning for future EIAs. Given that the regulatory framework is a core dimension of governance and foundational to effectiv…
Impacts of offshore wind farms
Significance determination is one of the most complex and least understood elements of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA). In offshore projects, especially in sensitive coastal zones, this task becomes even more critical. This study evaluates the quality of significance determinations in Environmental Impact Statements (EISs) for offshore wind projects. A purposive sample of 11 EISs from England, Scotland, the United States, and Brazil was ana…
Availability and accessibility of Environmental Impact Assessment documents of the offshore wind sector in public repositories
The offshore wind energy sector is rapidly expanding globally, with dozens of new projects being proposed. As a consequence, the volume of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) documents prepared and stored in public repositories is increasing. To ensure transparency and support meaningful stakeholder participation, these documents must be available and accessible. This paper analyzes the current state of the availability and accessibility of EIA…
Just Transition? Environmental Racism and Wind Energy in Brazil
Wind energy has expanded rapidly in Brazil in recent years, accounting for 15.2% of national electricity generation in 2023. This growth, however, has been accompanied by socioenvironmental conflicts in communities located near wind farms, including livelihood disruptions, forced displacement, and health impacts. Using national census data and georeferenced information on existing and planned wind farms, we examined the racial composition of cens…
An assessment of the ecosystem services content of green plans as an evaluation proxy for the delivery of urban green infrastructure
Developing strategic environmental assessment in contexts of non-systematic practice
Energy transition initiatives are expanding the frontiers of offshore wind generation. Impact assessment instruments, such as strategic environmental assessment (SEA), should consider the consequences of these developments. By reviewing the literature on SEA and a case in Brazil, we draw lessons for harnessing potential SEA contributions to support offshore wind development in jurisdictions where its practice is non-systematic, i.e. conducted in …
Educating on the importance of strategic environmental assessment
The application of SEA has increased worldwide. However, its practice in some jurisdictions, as Brazil, remains fragmented. This letter discusses the challenges and opportunities of teaching SEA in higher education in this non-systematic context, reinforcing the need for strategic thinking among planning practitioners. Our challenges are related to the lack of national regulation, including the absence of guidance on SEA approaches and standardiz…
Rethinking scenario building for sustainable futures
Scenario building is a powerful tool for evaluating drivers of environmental change and assessing alternative socioecological pathways, helping integrate science-based information into decision-making. Nonetheless, this potential has not been fully embraced by scientists and decision-makers, in part owing to limitations of current scenario frameworks at representing the diversity of values for nature and potential transformative changes to bend t…
Understanding land use change impacts on ecosystem services within urban protected areas
Strategic planning to mitigate mining impacts on protected areas in the Brazilian Amazon
Mitigating impacts on ecosystem services requires more than biodiversity offsets
Proposed Legislation to Mine Brazil's Indigenous Lands Will Threaten Amazon Forests and Their Valuable Ecosystem Services
Keep the Amazon niobium in the ground
Integrating socio-environmental spatial information to support housing plans
Mainstreaming environmental issues into housing plans
Practitioners’ perceptions of the Brazilian environmental impact assessment system
Practitioners play a key role in implementing environmental impact assessment (EIA) policies. Gauging their perception can help in designing legislation or regulation reforms and signals what needs more attention in research. The Brazilian EIA system is under review by lawmakers, but there is scant information about the views of professionals. A survey was conducted to inquiry on practitioners' perception of the Brazilian EIA system regarding: (1…
