We believe that, given the urgent need to decarbonize the energy sector, incorporating well-established ecological principles into the design and operation of PV arrays is an option
The building sector is significantly contributing to climate change, pollution, and energy crises, thus requiring a rapid shift to more sustainable construction practices.
We show how a fundamental understanding of the patterns and controls of plant carbon uptake can improve solar arrays. By co-prioritizing the harvesting of sunlight by plants and
Conceptually, solar-pollinator habitat has the potential to improve the outputs of all classes of ecosystem services (Table 1). The pairing of solar energy and habitat enhancement sounds like a
To phase out fossil fuels and reach a carbon–neutral future, solar energy and notably photovoltaic (PV) installations are being rapidly scaled up.
Photovoltaic power generation is playing an increasingly prominent role in the global energy transition, and the rapid expansion of photovoltaic power plants (PVPPs) has raised growing
Solar energy stands out as a potent weapon in the fight against climate change and environmental degradation. Its benefits extend far beyond simply generating electricity; they
We contend that ground-mounted solar arrays that are designed and managed on the basis of ecological principles can provide a more sustainable approach to future PV energy expansion.
