The growth of energy demand worldwide and the establishment of energy development strategy and goals have greatly promoted the development of clean energy. Solar energy is one of the typical representatives. Traditional solar power generation technology mainly uses photovoltaic panels on the ground or roof to convert solar energy into electricity.
The major benefit of solar energy over other conventional power generators is that the sunlight can be directly converted into solar energy with the use of smallest photovoltaic (PV) solar cells.
Previous studies have shown that plant biomass between PV panels is 1.5 times greater than that outside the photovoltaic field, while plant biomass under PV panels is lower (Alona et al., 2016). The redistribution of rainfall runoff by PV panels leads to a lower soil moisture content under the panels, and weak annual light conditions result in reduced plant biomass

The individual and combined effects of several key factors must be understood and mitigated to optimize PV output: solar irradiance, temperature, cloud cover, dust and pollutants, snow cover, albedo, and extreme weather events. Solar irradiance is the most significant factor affecting PV performance, with the strongest impact near the equator.
Additionally, PV panel surfaces absorb more solar insolation due to a decreased albedo 13, 23, 24. PV panels will re-radiate most of this energy as longwave sensible heat and convert a lesser amount (~20%) of this energy into usable electricity.
Notably, air temperature and humidity are also important climatic factors, and many studies have shown that the temperature under PV panels is relatively lower, while the air humidity is greater than that outside the panel area (Li et al., 2020).
Both the random forest model and mixed effects model highlighted key driving factors such as air temperature and humidity, location under the photovoltaic panel, monthly variations, geographical environment, and photovoltaic scale, which influenced the ecological responses to PVPPs.
However, the currently available evidence regarding the effects of photovoltaic installations on biodiversity is still scarce. More research is urgently needed on non-flying mammals and bats as well as amphibians and reptiles. Solar thermal panels and floating PV installations should also be further investigated.
