Camissa is supporting the Vifor Wind Farm in Romania during its operational phase with the design and implementation of the Post-Construction Bird and Bat Monitoring program. The Vifor Wind Farm, developed by Rezolv Energy, will be one of the largest onshore wind projects in Southeast Europe.

This was the first meta-study to assess the impacts of wind energy on bats in South Africa, describing patterns of bat fatalities across species, locations, and temporal periods. The study identified potential cumulative impacts on high-risk species, such as free-tailed bats. Findings also highlighted broader risks to bats beyond South Africa, with implications for wind energy development across the African continent.

This work involved delivering training and on-going technical support to a local consultancy to implement a post-construction fatality monitoring (PCFM) program for bats and birds at two wind power projects in Vietnam. This included developing a biodiveristy management plan, desinging a robust PCFM, and training in fatality estimation.

In partnership with Natural Power, Camissa designed and developed a PCFM for birds and bats, and developed an operational phase biodiversity management plan for six IFC-funded wind power projects.

This project involved providing biodiversity expertise to the IFC in support of their investment in a wind power project in Uzbekistan. This involved a technical review of the ESIA, Critical Habitat Assessments, Biodiversity Management Plan & Biodiversity Monitoring and Evaluation Programme, and Collision Risk Management Plan.

At this 120MW onshore wind project, Camissa designed and implemented a best-practice post-construction fatality monitoring program to manage the impact of the facility on bats.
