Databases

Achieving a Nature- and People-Positive energy transition requires more than ambition. It demands access to practical, field-tested knowledge that bridges renewable energy deployment with biodiversity protection and community wellbeing.

This page showcases key databases developed by the Renewables Grid Initiative (RGI), the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), and the Offshore Coalition for Energy and Nature (OCEaN). These platforms capture valuable practices, tools, technologies, and policy-relevant insights to inform a Nature- and People-Positive energy transition. 

Together, these open-access resources empower decision-makers, project developers, community leaders, and civil societies to co-create energy infrastructure that benefits people and nature and supports progress toward global climate and biodiversity goals.
