SOLAR FARMS AS HAVENS FOR WILDLIFE AND GREEN
ENERGY
When you think of solar farms, you likely picture rows of advanced solar panels, silently
absorbing sunlight. But what if these solar farms could also serve as thriving habitats
for wildlife?
Welcome to the world of agrivoltaics-a blend of agriculture and green energy where it
doesn’t just fuel our homes, but it revitalizes ecosystems.
Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB) is leading this innovative approach through its
subsidiaries, Spark Renewables Pty Ltd (Spark Renewables) in Australia and Vantage
RE Ltd (Vantage RE) in the UK. These initiatives seamlessly merge solar power with
agriculture, transforming solar farms into vibrant ecosystems and advancing global
sustainability.
