Energy transition and biodiversity preservation don't always fit together 🤷♂️ Recent work by ADEME has shown that the construction of solar panel power plants can lead to an 85% loss of pollinators. But replacing fossil fuels with low-carbon energies is an absolute necessity. So what can be done to minimize the negative effects of solar farms on biodiversity? Here are 4 points to consider in order to do things the right way: 🎯 𝗦𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 Exclude areas of high ecological value, such as nature reserves and ecological corridors. Instead give priority to already degraded or anthropized land, such as former quarries or abandoned industrial sites. 🌳  𝗘𝗰𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 Integrate green spaces and maintain vegetation under and around solar panels to promote biodiversity with local pollinator-friendly plant species that can provide habitat and food such as white clover, lavender or thyme. 📊 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝘂𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 Set up monitoring programs to assess biodiversity and track changes over the time which will enable the adoption of adaptive management practices based on results, such as adjusting mowing or grazing methods to favor certain species. 🤝 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗻𝘃𝗼𝗹𝘃𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀 Involve local communities, biodiversity and environmental experts from the planning and design phases to ensure that projects take local concerns into account. As a site manager, it is a good way to build trust and comply with regulatory requirments! From conception to site monitoring and management, BeeOdiversity has all the expertise and tools needed to find solutions to your industry's challenges.

Need a dose of inspiration during your summer break? We've been running a BeeOmonitoring project with the Association Patrimoniale de la Plaine de Versailles and local beekeepers since 2021, and the results are simply incredible: 🌱 Following our experts' recommendations, the number of plant species has more than doubled, which has considerably improved pollinator nutrition. 📊 Sharing the results of the analyses has raised public awareness of environmental issues, encouraging citizens, farmers and municipalities to adopt better practices. This experience is another example that collective action is the best, if not the only way to act effectively for future generations and the environment. #Biodiversity #CollectiveAction #PlainedeVersailles #Inspiration
