Annex 2 Summary of the interactive session During the interactive session participants discussed the following two questions: What are the key opportunities within the selected development sector for implementation of the SPLAN Natura 2000 findings? Which important actions need to be taken in order to realize these opportunities in the spatial planning practices of the Member States? The tables bellow summarise the results of this interactive session. Group Transport and Infrastructure Opportunities Next steps Transport network policy should be integrated Clear picture about which roads need into to be part of spatial planning upgrading or downsizing considering N2000 areas, analyses of bottleneck locations in MSs (fragmentation of N-2000 across roads) Common database for integrated transport Joint action of public administration planning Develop know-how/tool kits for transport Cross-border collaboration on transport mitigation measures planning Economic calculations for long-term and Cost-benefits analyses integrated outputs Energy efficiency policy goals reduce the need Prioritise the needs for transport means in for conventional transport means transport plans Proper evaluation of policy and mitigation Monitoring should be mandatory, to be able to measures across transport networks learn from it and plan future measures Group Energy sector Opportunities Next steps Develop and upscale existing technologies Quick/easy implementation of technologies, that are not harmful for biodiversity Research needed in relation to the energy Increase data gathering for developing your sector and the impact on biodiversity strategy. Data gathered needs to be specific to the questions so it enables policy development Consider both the potential for renewable Look at trade offs energy, the capacity required also in terms of areas of supple and demand Data gathering is needed for maximising energy production while minimizing impact on biodiversity Reduce energy needs where possible
