Description
Alix Lafitte and co-authors present a 2023 map of evidence on how solar panel farms affect wildlife. Solar power is scaling fast as lands move off fossil fuels. Unlike wind or water power, its effects on species have only lately been charted, with hints of habitat loss, deaths, and shifts in behavior.
The team searched four databases, a scholar index, special sites, and a call for gray reports. They kept work on wild land and semi aquatic species near solar panel and solar thermal sites. Each kept study was logged and its validity graded. The map aims to show where proof is thick, where it is thin, and what future field work should test.
