AB - This report summarizes the work of the Intersessional Working Group until MoP9. Following the Intersessional Working Group Meeting held by Zoom on 10th May 2022, the IWG agreed that a new resolution should be put forward at the Meeting of Parties. The new resolution was drafted to emphasise the need for better monitoring, mitigation and data collection in offshore and repowering schemes. The IWG had also noted a widespread lack of appropriate monitoring, mitigation and supply of information on wind turbine casualties across many countries, and additional reminders of relevant policies and directives were therefore added to the resolution. In addition, some aspects of wording were changed to improve clarity and to provide a greater imperative for action. Resolution 9.4 Wind Energy and Bat Populations was accepted at the 9th Session of the Meeting of Parties in Brijuni, Croatia, 10 – 13 October 2022.
