Part C: Summary

Framework for Assessing Ecological and Cumulative Effects 3.0: Beschrijving and assessment of the cumulative effects associated with the implementation of the 2030 Offshore Wind Energy Roadmap

Relationship between parts A, B and C

Part A of the KEC report provides the conceptual framework for the approach to ecology and accumulation, and describes its implementation for offshore wind energy. Part A replaces previously published versions. The substantive reports (in Part B) further elaborate the substantive methods and models used, and include the calculations for the roadmap as made with the models. New reports have been added to Part B.

Part C provides an executive summary of the substantive reports and states the conditions required for the implementation of the 2030 Roadmap. Part C is new by comparison with previous versions.
