Description
Growing Solar, Protecting Nature explores a different path forward for scaling up solar energy resources in the Commonwealth. In this vision, solar plays an essential and growing role in cleaning our power grid, while nature is also left intact to continue its irreplaceable role combating climate change, supporting biodiversity, and providing resilience to climate change’s worst impacts. This analysis shows that achieving the vision of growing solar while protecting nature is fully within our grasp. But, doing so requires a quick and intentional pivot from current siting practices, with immediate and purposeful changes to energy incentives and programs, enhanced and coordinated state and local planning efforts, and stronger incentives for keeping natural and working lands intact.
