REWI is designing and constructing the SolSource Database with funding awarded through the U.S. Department of Energy Solar Energy Technologies Office (DE-EE0010381). As part of this process, REWI is soliciting feedback on a prototype of the database to better reflect user needs and accessibility.

During this webinar, the SolSource Database team will walk through a live version of the prototype database and answer any questions. Following the demonstration, attendees will be asked to complete the Feedback Survey

 

About the SolSource Database

The SolSource Database is a one-stop-shop community resource of solar-biodiversity data enabling registered users to find and share data collected at solar facilities.

With solar development rapidly increasing, researchers are turning to collaboration and data pooling to keep pace with existing and emerging questions. By pooling and standardizing site-level data, the SolSource Database enables researchers to identify trends at the regional and national levels – driving greater understanding of the varied considerations for solar development across the U.S.The SolSource Database establishes a platform to inform public understanding, address regulatory concerns, and inform permitting practices around critical solar-biodiversity questions. The data-sharing platform standardizes and shares new data, protocols and standards as they emerge during the continued expansion of utility-scale solar development. This approach ensures confidentiality and protects sensitive information while providing proper credit for work, funding, and site access. Users are expected to span regulatory agencies, industry, consulting, non-profits, and academia.
