Today’s Solutions: July 17, 2025

Most large-scale solar installations are placed on natural lands where the sunlight can best be captured, and that may actually be a benefit to the wildlife living in that habitat. Wildlife charity RSPB and clean tech company Anesco have created a project to boost threatened wildlife at the firm’s solar farms across England and Wales. The scheme will reinstate habitats which have been lost in the face of agricultural intensification to boost insects such as bees and butterflies and to provide for the struggling native bird species. The team will implement seed-rich planting in the “unused” margins of the solar farms as well as creating wild flower meadows around the solar farms. The project hopes to show how renewable energy and wildlife conservation can work in unison to maximize the positive effect of transitioning to clean energy.
