VIDEO // Ten artificial nests for saker falcon, one thousand bird-protection devices installed on Vulcanesti–Chisinau power line
Ten artificial nests for the saker falcon and 1,000 devices that enhance the visibility of power lines have been installed as part of the 400 kV Vulcanesti–Chisinau Overhead Power Line project. The measures were meant to reduce the impact of energy infrastructure on birds and protect biodiversity, the Energy Projects Implementation Unit (UCIPE) has said.
According to the institution, the ten artificial nests are intended for the saker falcon, a species included in the Red Book of Moldova. They were installed on the power line pylons, providing nesting sites for the species.
In addition, 1,000 bird diverters were installed, in order to increase the visibility of the power lines and help prevent birds from colliding with them.
UCIPE notes that these measures represent a first for the energy infrastructure of Moldova and are part of the solutions implemented within the 400 kV Vulcanesti–Chisinau line project, in order to reduce its environmental impact.
