Renewable Energy Wildlife Institute
awwi.org
The Renewable Energy Wildlife Institute (REWI), formerly called the American Wind and Wildlife Institute (AWWI) until 2022, is a U.S. nonprofit organization that seeks to encourage the development of wind energy and solar power while preserving wildlife and habitats that are at risk from the operation and development of wind farms. Located in Washington, D.C., REWI was founded in November 2008 by a coalition of seven conservation and science organizations – including the Environmental Defense Fund, The Nature Conservancy and the Union of Concerned Scientists – and 13 wind industry companies. REWI's initiatives have included the development of wind siting maps and identifying potential biodiversity concerns created by wind energy projects.

Why this record matters
“Renewable Energy Wildlife Institute” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Renewable, Energy and Wildlife provides the most credible route into that argument.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 22, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q4745382. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2022 and 2008.
A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
