 A solar developer says one of its investors has agreed to make some of its facilities more pollinator friendly.

On Monday, Encore Renewable Energy, a Burlington-based solar developer, and Greenbacker Capital, based in New York, announced that 14 of their projects will feature plantings designed to help pollinators, such as bees.

Chad Farrell, chief executive officer of Encore, said Monday that the two portfolios are between Vermont and Maine. Locally, 115 acres of Encore’s Vermont projects will be pollinator-friendly. The new sites consist of one solar site in Middlebury, Shelburne and Northfield, two in Morrisville, and two in Hardwick.
