This summary report in English presents the key findings of a comprehensive study commissioned by the Federal Maritime and Hydrographic Agency (BSH) on behalf of the Federal Ministry for Housing, Urban Development and Building (BMWSB).
Developed by s.Pro – sustainable projects GmbH (lead), together with Ramboll Germany and the Research and Development Centre at Kiel University of Applied Sciences, the study explores how marine space in the German EEZ can be used more efficiently through multi-use concepts.
It focuses on combining offshore wind farms with additional uses such as aquaculture, passive fisheries, ecological restoration and research, outlining technical, legal and spatial planning conditions for their integration.
The report supports future policy development and planning frameworks for sustainable, multi-purpose use of ocean space in the North and Baltic Seas.
