Motorization of stork deterrent systems

Improve the efficiency of deterring white storks (Ciconia ciconia) from building nests on the supports of REN's high-voltage power lines, mitigating operational, safety, and energy supply interruption risks.

Automate the movement of deterrents, improving efficiency in preventing nests on turbine supports through the implementation of motorized systems.

• Reduction of 40% in the number of incidents caused by storks on high-voltage (MAT) lines.
• Permanent monitoring of the system's performance through an online platform.
• Improvement in the reliability of deterrents and the performance of the electricity grid.
• Increased safety, as the reduction in stork-related incidents decreases the risk of damage to REN's infrastructures, enhancing the safety of the electrical system.
