Recording of Thursday, December 12, 2024 | Sustainable Solar Europe | Language: English | Duration: 92:19 .

Solar parks do not only produce renewable, clean energy, but they can also improve the environmental conditions of the land they stand on. In collaboration with The Nature Conservancy, SolarPower Europe has developed a Biodiversity Net Gains Policy paper, assessing how solar PV can contribute to the EU nature restoration goals. This session will discuss what role the EU decision-makers play in enhancing the scaling of nature-inclusive solar parks in Europe. It will assess the different biodiversity net gain schemes that exist and how these schemes can enhance the development of nature-inclusive solar PV.
