PDF version includes complete article with source references. Suitable for printing and offline reading.
The evaluation of the environmental impact of solar and wind power plants is based on a wide range of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) studies. The comparison between RES and NRES power plants with numerical data is realized with studies using the same impact assessment methods and categories of environmental impacts.
Solar energy and environmental impact assessments are integral to our sustainable future. By harnessing the power of the sun, we can reduce greenhouse gas emissions, improve air and water quality, and create economic opportunities.
To ensure the sustainability of solar energy projects, conducting environmental impact assessments is crucial. These assessments involve a comprehensive process of identifying and analyzing potential environmental impacts, ranging from land use to water usage and wildlife impacts.
Several options can be considered to improve the overall environmental performance of wind and solar energy systems. First, the most effective factor is the recycling rate of the materials used in the manufacturing process.
