This year, Lightsource bp hosted eight onboarding solar site visits \u2013 five in the United Kingdom, two in Spain and one in the US. A total of 285 team members, including 25 interns, were actively engaged in these informative sessions.<\/strong><\/p>\n

These site visits are designed to familiarise employees with the mechanisms of solar energy production, maintenance, and collaborative team dynamics.<\/p>\n

Diving into the world of solar energy, our team members gained insights into gigawatt (GW) production and the aspects of solar farm maintenance. This hands-on approach allowed them to understand the fundamentals of how solar farms function and contribute to the renewable energy landscape.<\/p>\n

The site visits included collaborative activities, fostering team spirit among participants. The site visits not only facilitated learning, but also nurtured a sense of community and shared purpose, vital in our dynamic work environment.<\/p>\n

\"Lightsource\u201cIt\u2019s my first visit to a solar farm and I\u2019m a lawyer by profession, so it\u2019s nice to see how what you write in contracts actually really works and the team has been phenomenal. They have been very welcoming.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

– <\/em>Harshita Khurana, Senior Legal Counsel<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve learnt how the whole solar farm itself work; it is nice to meet people that work here as well, and getting insight into their day-to-day.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

– Vinnie Havis, Finance Assistant\"Lightsource<\/strong><\/p>\n

“It was actually really informative to see one of our sites first-hand in operation. I learnt about transformers, inverters\u00a0and different types of fans. It’s great to see Lightsource bp in other working environments and have made great friends\u00a0along the way.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Biodiversity is our business<\/h2>\n

We are committed to responsible solar by developing solar farms that not only help the global energy outlook, but also our local communities. Increasing biodiversity on our solar farms is one of the ways we make sure we protect and enhance our projects and be a good neighbour.<\/p>\n\n <\/span>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n
