Hybrid wind and solar farms are making their way in Lithuania:

As the demand for renewable energy grows rapidly and development gains momentum, there is more talk of hybrid wind and solar farms, where several installations of different renewable energy technologies are connected to a single grid connection point. Hybrid parks are increasingly being built in Europe, and are now also being built in Lithuania. When []
