Collision protective birds on power lines

Proposed topic: Collision protective birds on power lines

Project title: Bird collision protectors on power lines based on the physiology of birds

Project acronym: Birdprotec

Project objectives: Reducing the collision of birds on power lines and the visual impact of existing anti-collision systems

Project abstract: Given the environmental problems posed by the bird mortality as a result of collision with power lines are being installed devices that can reduce bird collision, generate a environmental impact.

Project structure: The project is divided into different stages, with an estimated duration of 3 years:

• Study the state of the art.
• Analysis physiology of birds.
• Identification typology and species most susceptible to collision impact.
• Analysis collisions of birds on power lines.
• Design and develop anti-collision devices.
• Tests in the laboratory.
• Field tests.

Project partners: University (biology and physiology aninal), bird conservation centers, distribution companies and power transmission technology centers).
