(PRESS RELEASE) LONDON, 23-Apr-2025 — /EuropaWire/ — As Earth Day 2025 shines a spotlight on the theme “Our Power, Our Planet”—with a call to action to harness renewable energy—Lightsource bp, a global leader in solar development, management and operations, reaffirms its mission to deliver utility-scale clean energy projects that not only power homes and industries but also nurture ecosystems and support communities.

With more than 11.5GW of renewable energy developed across three global regions, Lightsource bp takes pride in the sustainable value it creates—for people, partners, and the planet. Environmental stewardship and responsible development aren’t just side initiatives at Lightsource bp—they are fundamental principles guiding every stage of project development, construction, and operation.

“Our approach to renewable energy is holistic,” the company says. “We don’t just build solar farms—we strive to make them places that benefit biodiversity, empower local economies, and support long-term environmental goals.”

Key pillars of Lightsource bp’s sustainability approach include:

• Biodiversity and agrivoltaics: Through site-specific management plans, the company delivers biodiversity net gains on qualifying solar sites. Where possible, solar installations are combined with agricultural use, promoting coexistence of clean energy and farming.

• Decarbonisation commitments: By aligning with science-based targets, Lightsource bp continues to decarbonise both its operations and supply chain.

• Circularity and waste: Emphasising responsible waste management, the company aims to embed circularity into its project lifecycle.

• Ethical sourcing and supply chain transparency: Lightsource bp fosters strong partnerships with suppliers who share its values of environmental responsibility and integrity, reinforcing a global network of sustainable procurement.

• Local investment and community engagement: From job creation to open dialogue with residents, the company ensures communities are engaged and supported throughout a project’s development.

The team at Lightsource bp strives to go above and beyond—creating solar farms that are not only efficient power producers but also havens for nature and community collaboration.

To mark Earth Day, the company offers a sensory glimpse into life on a solar farm—inviting people to hear and see the serene coexistence of technology and nature. It’s a reminder that renewable energy, when developed with care, can be a force for peace and harmony as well as power.
