SPARKLES: SPARKing a nature-positive future of floating solar for humans and nature across LandscapES

Solar systems are implemented at increasingly large scale to meet demands for sustainable energy, including placing them on inland waters. SPARKLES unites scientists and stakeholders across domains (energy, ecology, society) to develop nature-positive solutions for floating solar for humans and nature. By putting nature front and center we look for integrative solutions that solve multiple problems in the living environment, rather than creating trade-offs between humans and nature.

Some casestudies SPARKLES are building on previous projects as GREEN: Making GREEN Energy Sources Greener – Hanze
