摘要

波罗的海海上风力发电的扩张引发了对生物多样性影响的担忧。生态补偿（EC）是缓解这些影响的潜在策略，但其可行性尚不确定。本研究从生态、治理、金融和社会的角度考察了芬兰波罗的海地区海上风电项目的EC可行性。通过对行业、政府、非政府组织和研究人员的专家访谈，我们确定了实施EC措施的主要挑战和机遇，并以芬兰为例进行了研究。虽然治理和社会接受度支持EC，但由于知识有限和考虑到海洋生态系统的不确定性，生态和财政限制构成了重大障碍。为提高欧盟的可行性，本文提出了四项建议，包括：1)建立一个专门的机构，负责欧盟的实施和市场管理；2)与利益相关者、行业和研究机构合作启动试点项目；3)进一步研究波罗的海海上风电的影响；4)采用灵活透明的政策框架，支持欧盟的实施。

Feasibility of implementing ecological compensation for offshore wind power in the Finnish Baltic Sea area

The expansion of offshore wind power in the Baltic Sea raises concerns about biodiversity impacts. Ecological compensation (EC) is a potential strategy to mitigate these effects, but its feasibility remains uncertain. This study examines the viability of EC for offshore wind projects in the Finnish Baltic Sea region from ecological, governance, financial, and social perspectives. Through expert interviews with industry, government, NGOs, and researchers, we identify key challenges and opportunities of implementing EC measures, using Finland as a case study. While governance and social acceptance support EC, ecological and financial constraints pose significant barriers due to the limited knowledge and uncertainties considering marine ecosystems. Four suggestions are highlighted to improve the feasibility of EC, including 1) establishing a specialised authority for implementation and market management of EC, 2) initiate pilot projects in collaboration with stakeholders, industry and research institutes, 3) conduct further research on offshore wind impacts in the Baltic Sea and 4) adopt flexible and transparent policy frameworks supporting implementation of EC.

期刊介绍： Marine Policy is the leading journal of ocean policy studies. It offers researchers, analysts and policy makers a unique combination of analyses in the principal social science disciplines relevant to the formulation of marine policy. Major articles are contributed by specialists in marine affairs, including marine economists and marine resource managers, political scientists, marine scientists, international lawyers, geographers and anthropologists. Drawing on their expertise and research, the journal covers: international, regional and national marine policies; institutional arrangements for the management and regulation of marine activities, including fisheries and shipping; conflict resolution; marine pollution and environment; conservation and use of marine resources. Regular features of Marine Policy include research reports, conference reports and reports on current developments to keep readers up-to-date with the latest developments and research in ocean affairs.
