Recently, our Elizabeth Mine Solar project, located in Strafford, Vermont was featured in an article by The Nature Conservancy, focusing on it’s unique story and origins. The article emphasizes the positive impact this project has had on the community of Stafford, including the fact that Elizabeth Mine Solar generates enough electricity to power every home in town. It also speaks to the positive changes that come about when different levels of government work together and embrace new ideas and concepts. At GSI, we are passionate about creating a sustainable world, and projects like Elizabeth Mine help to inspire us to continue advancing clean energy solutions.

Enterprising Sales Professional specialising in PPA , CPPA and Wholesale Energy activity at Inspired PLC , Industry Advocate at WUN (Womans Utility Network) and I am Remarkable Facilitator
This is big news for the solar industry – and an industry first for EDF Renewables UK ☀️ We are partnering with Nature Positive and the University of Exeter's Environment and Sustainability Institute (ESI) to study the ecological effects of solar farms at our Longfield solar farm in Essex. It's recognised that solar farms can enhance the local biodiversity, but this research will provide robust data to identify which biodiversity improvements are most effective and help to inform industry best practice in the future.

Without community support, the green energy transition faces significant hurdles. Communities play a crucial role in driving change by influencing local policies, investing in renewable energy projects, and adopting sustainable practices. Their involvement is vital for the widespread acceptance and implementation of green technologies. Community support also fosters innovation and creates a sense of shared responsibility for environmental stewardship. Additionally, community engagement can help address social and economic challenges, ensuring that the transition is equitable and inclusive. Ultimately, the success of the green energy transition depends on empowering and mobilizing communities to embrace and champion sustainable practices. https://lnkd.in/gegKDdMC

CEO at Coalition for Conservation; Owner and Director - SalDoce Fine Foods; Director - Export Council of Australia; Director - DFAT Council on Australia Latin America Relations;
The success of rooftop #solar signals a remarkable shift in #energy dynamics. Rooftop solar not only empowers individual owners but also bolsters the broader #community. Its minimal #environmental and #socialimpact, coupled with the integration of #batterystorage, extends its reach even when the sun sets. The commercial and industrial (C&I) sectors now emerge as key players in this energy revolution. While designed to reduce grid electricity costs, C&I rooftop solar systems offer untapped potential. Paired with advanced battery storage, they could diminish reliance on distant wind and solar farms, safeguarding rural interests from unnecessary industrialization. The strategic use of vacant rooftop space in urban centers can deliver cost-effective, locally generated #electricity. To unlock this potential, supportive policies are paramount. Allowing surplus rooftop solar energy injection into the grid, coupled with necessary grid enhancements and revised access arrangements, can pave the way. State and local governments hold the reins to implement these policies swiftly, unburdened by national regulations. Proactive regions stand to attract and retain consumers with the promise of affordable, clean electricity. The Australian Government's role in advancing this cause is pivotal. The Coalition for Conservation Inc. is putting together recommendations with the help of our Advisory experts like Prof Bruce Mountain to make sure we optimise the opportunities posed by C&I rooftop solar to foster financial attractiveness in local energy supply so the need for high-voltage transmission expansions is eased, creating lots of savings. https://lnkd.in/gUpHYx7r
