New certification scheme turns solar farms into wildlife havens

Original: The new certification scheme helping solar farms become havens for wildlife

A new certification scheme is being introduced to encourage solar farms to double as habitats for wildlife. Under the scheme, solar sites would be managed to support pollinators, birds and other species alongside clean energy generation. Supporters say it could transform how solar developments are designed and maintained, turning large energy installations into useful ecological spaces rather than barren fields of panels.

Why now: Growing interest in reconciling renewable energy expansion with biodiversity conservation.
