Identifying FPV interactions with ecosystems and establishing environmental impact guidelines

By studying the interaction between FPV systems and aquatic biodiversity, SuRE aims to develop guidelines and tools to assess, mitigate, and manage ecological effects, promoting responsible renewable energy deployment.

A central focus is classifying European waterbodies to create a decision-support tool for optimal FPV site selection, considering waterbody types, ecological services, and hydrological data. SuRE also models FPV impacts on ecosystems, establishing maximum coverage thresholds and benefits like evaporation reduction. Advanced life cycle analysis (LCA) methodologies assess the environmental footprint of FPV systems, including carbon emissions and biodiversity impact, while exploring recycling options for plastic components to improve sustainability.

Exploring recycling options for plastic components to improve sustainability

SuRE will deliver published guidelines and monitoring tools, positioning FPV as a sustainable, eco-friendly energy solution for the future.

The project emphasizes stakeholder engagement to ensure solutions align with societal and environmental needs. Digital simulations refine FPV designs to enhance light penetration, support aquatic life, and improve overall efficiency.
