1175 | 264 | Renewable energy based semi-antropogen ecosystem service: the Rétköz lake case study

The challenges of the energy transition require a new way of thinking in all areas of life. The use of renewable energy sources offers an opportunity to reverse the adverse spatial processes resulting from past careless human interventions and climate change, and to create a healthy ecosystem service. _x000D_
There is no part of the world today that does not bear the scars of human activity. This process seems unstoppable. So perhaps the best we can do is to approach complex processes with the utmost care. There are many uses for a piece of land, and coordinating them requires careful development and sustainable land use planning. _x000D_
The case study of the Rétköz lake in north-east Hungary illustrates a habitat rehabilitation project where a number of human uses have been reconciled with the conservation and restoration of the natural environment. As a result of climate change, the good condition of the habitat can now only be maintained artificially, with renewable energy sources playing a key role. The rehabilitation and sustainable management of the Rétköz lake is a model for resolving land use conflicts and providing a rich ecosystem service powered by renewables._x000D_
