Date/ event: 1st EEA/EIONET workshop – Maritime, 26 Oct 2010 Author: Dr. Manuel Lago, Max Grünig and Benjamin Boteler - Ecologic Institute European offshore wind energy: employment and installations Key message: Key message: New installations of offshore wind energy and related employment increased between 2000 and 2009. Both new installations and employment in the offshore wind energy industry rose until 2003 before decreasing in 2004 and eventually surpassing 2003 levels in 2008. The rise in offshore wind farms is predominantly due to improvements in technology and the motivation to exploit higher and more predictable wind speeds found at sea.

In 2009 the three largest environmental priorities of ports were noise, air quality, and garbage/ port waste. The environmental priorities of the European port system provide insight into the issues of the port sector and the environmental challenges it may be facing in the future.

It shows the productivity and management of the fishing industry. The sub-indicator shows a decline in employment in the European fishing sector from 2000 to 2006, with a slight rise in 2005. The decrease in employment is coupled with a steady decrease in total catches from both marine and freshwater areas.

The light green line displays profit of the selected countries. Profit is defined as: income minus all costs, including capital costs: income – (fuel cost + crew cost + repost + varcost + fixed cost + capital cost).

21. Date/ event: 1st EEA/EIONET workshop – Maritime, 26 Oct 2010 Author: Dr. Manuel Lago, Max Grünig and Benjamin Boteler - Ecologic Institute European fishing industry: profit, value of landings and weight of landings Key message Key message  The value of landings in the European fishing industry gradually rose between 2003 and 2007 while the weight of landings significantly decreased after peaking in 2005. Thus, the value per volume of catch has increased significantly. Profit in the industry increased between 2003 and 2006 before slightly decreasing in 2007. This indicates a potentially higher productivity of the fleet and a more sustainable management of the fisheries.

It is estimated that the number of fishermen has been decreasing by 4-5% a year since 1996/97. Continual declines in the fishing industry could have serious consequences for those Member States which have a higher percentage of the workforce directly working in the fishing sector.

Improving indicators = better quality data (i.e. no gaps), more detailed data and new data. Expanding indicators to new sectors (i.e. tourism, agriculture), new aspects (i.e. marine litter, eutrophication) is possible but dependent on availability of data. Expanding indicators to new sectors (i.e. tourism, agriculture), new aspects (i.e. marine litter, eutrophication) is possible but dependent on availability of data. There is the potential to link indicators to additional information tools (i.e European Atlas of the Seas), however, usefulness must first be explored.
