SUMMARY:ASGA Call 75: Digging into Vegetation and Soil Management Planning for Solar
DESCRIPTION:Events 1\n\n\n\nProper vegetation and soil management planning on solar sites is key to good land stewardship and setting up a project for successful vegetation cover. With the application of industry leading revegetation practices to prioritize soils\, vegetation establishment and success\, solar site development can have positive impacts on the foundation of these facilities with regards to soil health and the local ecology. The risks of getting this step wrong include soil erosion\, weed proliferation\, local community issues\, among others. \n\n\n\nFor this month’s call\, we’re joined by Rob Schultz from Invenergy’s Vegetation Management team\, who will discuss how they develop their vegetation and soil management plans. He’ll cover the path from development through operations and the best management practices they have been using to support vegetative success on their projects. These key aspects will include soil fertility testing\, seed mixture design\, pre-construction seeding\, in construction activities and the maintenance phase during operations. \n\n\n\nPreparing a site with grazing in mind can have big benefits for solar graziers and the vegetation management process. Rob will go over what they have been doing when planning for these grazing specific projects from a utility scale developers’ perspective. This includes the benefits as well as challenges that go into moving forward on this vegetation maintenance approach. \n\n\n\n\nRegister Here\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRob Schultz is a part of Invenergy’s well established Vegetation Management team\, which focuses on supporting their utility-scale solar portfolio across the country. He applies his experience and lessons learned from his time as a project manager for an ecological restoration firm based out of Minnesota where he planned\, implemented\, and managed large-scale\, revegetation projects across the Midwest. Now at Invenergy\, Rob oversees the development of Vegetation and Soil Management Plans (VSMPs) for each project\, ensuring a proactive and science-based approach where proper revegetation efforts are produced prior to construction. Additionally\, he applies his field experience to working with the project and asset management teams to ensure that the VSMPs are executed in a manner that allow for robust vegetative communities to thrive within Invenergy’s portfolio.

SUMMARY:ASGA's Fourth Annual Membership Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the Fourth Annual Membership Meeting of the American Solar Grazing Association! \n\n\n\n​2023 was a groundbreaking year as ASGA’s membership grew\, we launched a number of new initiatives\, and our members represented solar grazing and its benefits at events across the U.S.! We were excited to see solar grazing become even more important to the agricultural and the solar energy worlds and serve as a bridge between the two. \n\n\n\n​Join us for our 4th annual meeting as we reflect on the accomplishments of 2023 and look towards the exciting opportunities that 2024 will bring as solar grazing continues its nationwide growth. \n\n\n\n​Members can expect to: Vote in new board members\, meet your leadership team\, and hear about ASGA’s growth and accomplishments from the past year. We’ll also discuss ongoing initiatives and give you a glimpse of what to to expect from programming and ASGA’s projects in 2024. \n\n\n\n​The Annual Meeting will be hosted by ASGA’s leadership team. \n\n\n\n​Please make sure to RSVP to access the Zoom link! \n\n\n\n\nRegister Here
