Pollinator-friendly solar.

The 22nd May brings International day for biodiversity and a new buzz around solar farms and Bees!

Did you know that solar farms could be a haven for our dwindling bumblebee population? 🌞🐝 Not only does solar energy reduce harmful greenhouse gases compared to fossil fuels, but a recent study by Lancaster University found that well-managed solar farms can boost bumblebee numbers by 120%! 🌼 That's what we call a triple win: fewer emissions, more plant diversity, and thriving bumblebees.   

Buzz Community Energy are working with Quintas to try and bring a solar farm to Sheerhatch which would generate enough energy to power 15,000 homes a year https://sheerhatchsolar.co.uk/
