Sustainable renewable energy projects require more than clean energy generation. They demand thoughtful decision making across the entire project lifecycle, from material sourcing and construction to operations and decommissioning. As developers face growing pressure to reduce environmental impacts while meeting cost, reliability, and deployment goals, sustainability has become a central challenge in project development. In this session, panelists will cover the entire project life cycle from a sustainability lens- how are sites selected, projects constructed, evaluated, and eventually decommissioned- and share strategies for success and lessons learned to minimize project impact while maintaining project viability.
