Renewables Grid Initiative 67d ago

GINGR and the Renewables Grid Initiative hosted Connecting Vegetation Management & Ecosystem Accounting in Grid Planning on 22 April 2026 to explore how grid infrastructure can evolve from minimising impacts to actively delivering Nature- and People-Positive outcomes. This first session of the Connecting Energy, Nature & People Webinar Series focused on Integrated Vegetation Management (IVM) and ecosystem accounting, and how these approaches can be integrated into electricity grid planning. Participants learnt how operational practices can move beyond compliance to generate measurable biodiversity gains, strengthen community value, and support more resilient infrastructure decisions.
