Biodivenergy power plant

We design territorial projects that restore biodiversity on natural land. The power plant then becomes a biodiversity sanctuary for nearly 40 years.

Ecological building blocks

Our commitment to biodiversity led us to design a solar power plant that restores biodiversity on the land, through a series of ecological building blocks.
Ecological corridors
Differentiated vegetation management
Reptile cottages
Hedgerows
Ponds
Local plants
Permeable wildlife fencing

The qualitative and quantitative follow-up of biodiversity at the power plant

The IQE (indicator of ecological quality) characterizes the biodiversity at the global scale of a site.
The GBS is the biodiversity footprint assessment tool of the Biodiversity subsidiary of the CDC group (Caisse des Dépôts et Consignations).
Our projects apply for a Effinature certification to ensure the integration and preservation of biodiversity.

A modular tracker solution adapted to the preservation of biodiversity

  • A design that leaves more space for ecological management and the development of biodiversity using a the tracker solution coupled with bifacial panels.
  • Partial and rotating shade, beneficial to the regrowth of original vegetation.
  • A homogeneous flow of water in case of rain, limiting soil erosion.
  • Limited impact on the ground:
    - Minimal ground footprint
    - Driven pile foundations
    - Biodiversity constraints taken into account from the construction phase
  • Manufacturing based on eco-designs: Use of low-carbon steel, a choice of panel suppliers, use of eco-design software...

Territorial development plans

Biodivenergy plants were designed to be completely integrated into the community and to meet local needs and challenges, bringing together local stakeholders to facilitate community acceptance.

Educational tours, environmental testing zones, landscape restoration… Each site is studied in depth by expert landscape architects, contributing to each solar park’s unique identity.

We also open up the capital of each project to local participatory financing to allow a maximum number of local residents and stakeholders to benefit from the project’s economic spinoffs.

FAQs

 
Why does a tracker system take up less space than a fixed system?

Our tracker system allows solar panels and piles to be placed much further apart than on a conventional power plant. The space between each row of panels leaves more room for biodiversity to develop.

 
Is it possible to combine biodiversity with a photovoltaic power plant?

Biodivenergy power plant provides a real opportunity to develop a photovoltaic project associated with biodiversity restoration by setting up ponds, reptile cottages, hedgerows, ecological corridors or even permeable fences for wildlife.
