Abstract
One of the objectives of marine spatial planning should be to contribute to an
understanding and management of complex socio‐ecological interactions at sea. In this study, we focus on the interactions between offshore renewable energy (ORE) and nature conservation (NC). Assuming that co‐existence between marine uses should be pursued whenever possible, an empirical analysis of eleven European marine areas points out whether and at which level co‐existence between ORE and NC could be an ideal management approach. Although the analysis suggests co‐existence could be followed, it is hardly applied in practice. Factors that contribute to these results were analysed, based on which a mechanism facilitating the realisation of coexistence is developed.
