Asking for pollinator-friendly solar—whether at the procurement/RFP stage or in local ordinances—is a reliable way to maximize benefits and ensure solar projects are built and managed in line with expectations. Clif Bar, Connexus Energy, Denison University, Xcel Energy, Catholic Charities of Washington DC, Sterns County Minnesota and a growing list of corporations, cooperatives, counties, and utilities, are embracing the approach.
