Insights on how innovation and monitoring solutions help balance renewable energy growth with bird and biodiversity protection

Ørsted and Spoor AI partner on bird monitoring campaign at Borssele offshore wind farm
As offshore wind energy expands, so does the need for precise, data-backed insights into how birds interact with turbines. This trial will assess Spoor’s AI-powered monitoring system, using high-resolution cameras to track bird movements continuously and at long distances. By capturing high-quality video data, the project aims to improve impact assessments and refine mitigation strategies, contributing to more sustainable offshore wind development.
