It was great to hear from our own Rob Riley at the Renewable Energy Wildlife Institute (REWI) Southeast Solar Power and Wildlife / Natural Resources Workshop in Atlanta last week. During the panel, Rob and his industry peers explored the opportunities and challenges for solar build-out while conserving wildlife in Silicon Ranch's home region, the Southeast. Thanks to Southern Company, Georgia Power Company, and REWI for hosting these important conversations. #MakingSolarDoMore

How important is it to plan your #PollinatorHabitat around large-scale #SolarEnergy projects? It’s essential, which is why we are #StantecProud to have contributed to creating the newly published Solar Pollinator Implementation Manual. We worked with the University of Illinois Chicago’s Energy Resources Center for this guide that helps solar developers plan and implement their pollinator habitat. The guide is part of the Pollinator Habitat Aligned with Solar Energy (PHASE) research project. Learn more about the manual and PHASE. #sdg7 #sdg15

WRA's Severiano DeSoto testified for the passage of SB212 last week at the State Capitol. SB212 was the product of a year and a half long stakeholder process directed by WRA’s Severiano DeSoto and the Colorado Renewable Energy Siting Coalition to develop a siting policy that centers conservation and community values while helping to accelerate the build out of utility scale wind and solar projects. ☀️ Why is this so critical? Building the clean energy projects necessary to meet our ambitious climate goals will require a significant amount of land for wind and solar energy production, the largest driver of new land use change in the coming decades. To meet this need in a manner that does not exacerbate habitat loss and accelerate further loss of biodiversity requires a new approach to development planning that WRA is working to spearhead across the region. 🤝 Learn more about this work 👉 https://bit.ly/3UJu84i

Local authorities in England must identify suitable areas for renewable energy developments in England. The scales proposed require a new approach to Landscape Sensitivity Assessment (LSA). Edward White, Associate Landscape Planner presents a framework to help identify appropriate areas and highlights advantages such as nature recovery, reversing biodiversity loss, and achieving Biodiversity Net Gain. #renewableenergy #sustainability #climatechange #localgovernment #landscapeplanning #biodiversitynetgain

The agreement seeks to address some thorny #landUse and #biodiversity issues that often stymie power projects in which developers propose installing large arrays of #solarPanels. The deal is the result of months of discussions organized by the Stanford Woods Institute for the Environment, Solar Energy Industries Association, and The Nature Conservancy.
