The analysis will objectively present various viewpoints, challenges, and opportunities related to pollinator-friendly solar, including the costs for installation and maintenance, and

the non-monetary value of the projects from sustainability and ecological perspectives.

This project aims to understand the value of pollinator-friendly solar through a techno-economic analysis that considers owner/operator, ecological and sustainability perspectives.
