6 FAQs about [Soil surface map of photovoltaic energy storage power station]
Do large-scale photovoltaic power stations affect local ecosystems?
The expansion of photovoltaic (PV) networks is raising concerns regarding the potential impact of large-scale PV power stations on local ecosystems. However, a comprehensive understanding of the specific responses of vegetation and soil factors to PV con-struction across different study locations is still lacking.
How do PV power stations affect vegetation characteristics?
Following the construction of PV power stations, there were significant positive effects on vegetation characteristics, including biomass, vegetation coverage, richness, and diversity indices. Conversely, there were significant negative effects on soil evaporation, respiration, and germination rates.
Do PV power stations affect soil physicochemical properties?
However, in studies conducted in temperate, arid, and desert ecosystems, PV power stations positively influenced the ecological environment. Based on previous studies [46, 47, 48], the soil physicochemical properties were selected as depicted in Figure 6.
Do solar power stations improve vegetation productivity?
(2) PV construction promotes SWC, vegetation diversity, vegetation coverage, and vegetation biomass, significantly enhancing vegetation productivity. (3) Among the different ecosystems, PV power station effects were most significant in deserts, while showing negative impacts on croplands.
Does PV power station construction affect the ecological environment?
A meta-analysis revealed a significant increase in vegetation productivity (above-ground biomass) and vegetation coverage due to PV power station construction, which is consistent with the results of our study . These results underscore the positive impacts of PV power station construction on the ecological environment.
