Abstract

This paper aims to investigate biodiversity opportunities in photovoltaic solar farms and determine the financial feasibility of measures proposed by academics to increase biodiversity in these facilities. Firstly, the photovoltaic solar farm system is described. The problem and objective are also defined. Then, the interrelationships between photovoltaic farms and biodiversity are explained and summarized in a system dynamics causal loop diagram. Following that, measures proposed by academics to improve biodiversity in solar fields are laid out. Finally, through a simulation on a hypothetical plot of land in the province of Groningen, the financial implications of these measures are explained.
