<p>BEIS does not produce estimates on the number of bats killed and injured by onshore
wind turbines.</p><p>Updated guidance is available for developers and planners to
ensure that onshore wind energy developments pose minimal risk to bats. This was produced
jointly by Natural England, Scottish Natural Heritage, Natural Resources Wales, RenewableUK,
and others. The guidance can be accessed through the Government’s Planning Policy
Guidance on Renewable & Low Carbon Energy, or directly through this link: <a href="https://www.nature.scot/bats-and-onshore-wind-turbines-survey-assessment-and-mitigation"
