Protecting biodiversity and natural resources
Land use & biodiversity
We partner with landowners, farmers, research institutions, and communities to develop projects which support responsible land use, protect biodiversity and wildlife, and minimize our environmental impacts.

Dual use
We work with our landowners and partners to invest in dual-use projects which co-locate renewable energy projects with agricultural or land-use activities. By designing sites that support livestock grazing, pollinator habitats, and crop cultivation, we aim to preserve land, enhance soil health, and develop projects that maximize positive contribution to the environment and community.

Research
We partner with research institutions and organizations to understand how to incorporate agricultural production most effectively with solar projects. Some areas of research include crop growth, soil enhancement and promoting ecosystem services.

Pollinator habits
We strive to create native pollinator habitats for vital species like bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, and other pollinators. We carefully select vegetation for cover and buffers that support these species, promoting biodiversity and enhancing surrounding ecosystems.

Enriching soils
We are committed to preserving farmland through low-impact construction practices, such as minimal grading and limited soil disturbance. We partner with local experts to enhance soil quality by planting native ground cover around solar panels. Additionally, we are exploring regional soil enhancement strategies to restore land productivity, ensuring that our operations contribute positively to long-term land sustainability.

Solar grazing
We collaborate with landowners and local ranchers to implement livestock grazing across our portfolio. This alternative vegetative management practice not only enhances land health but also creates new revenue streams for farmers, supporting sustainable land use and economic growth.
In 2024
Biodiversity
We aim to protect and enhance biodiversity, working with local partners to preserve our ecosystems and promote long-term environmental stewardship. From wildlife protection, land and coastal restoration, and reforestation efforts, we are building healthier and resilient ecosystems.

Coastal restoration
We support coastal restoration to protect habitats, preserve biodiversity, and strengthen natural barriers along shorelines. Through partnerships and local initiatives, we work to safeguard ecosystems that are vital to nearby communities and wildlife.

Reforestation
We are dedicated to reforestation as a key strategy for enhancing biodiversity and strengthening local ecosystems. By planting native trees and flora and restoring degraded lands, we help improve local air quality, support wildlife habitats, and promote community resilience.

Wildlife
We work to restore native habitats around our sites, designing projects to avoid sensitive environmental areas, and partner with conservation groups to support responsible land use and wildlife conservation practices.
