NATURE+ Conference 2026

The NATURE+ Conference 2026 will explore how nature-inclusive design and nature-positive solutions can support the sustainable development of the offshore renewable energy sector. Taking place in Lisbon, the conference will bring together industry professionals, policymakers, researchers, environmental experts and innovators to discuss practical approaches to reducing environmental impacts and enhancing marine biodiversity.

Key topics include biodiversity enhancement, environmental monitoring, impact mitigation by design, circularity and achieving positive net gains for marine ecosystems. Examples of nature-positive solutions include artificial reefs, habitat creation, bird monitoring and underwater noise mitigation. The conference will examine how these approaches can be integrated into offshore renewable energy planning, permitting, construction and operation.
