A national survey of wildlife on solar farms has found that they can be havens for wildlife when specifically managed for conservation.

A 16.5MW solar farm to be built on land owned by Lancaster University as part of the university’s goals of becoming net zero for utility-based energy emissions by 2030 has been granted planning permission.

Changes to how solar PV park land in the UK is managed could see sites support four times as many bumble bees, new research has found.
